3.5.2 Forced Air Kit (Not tested under EPA certification)
The knock-outs provided on the back and on the sides of the BIS PANORAMA allow
the connection of insulated flexible pipe which enables you to heat adjacent rooms up to
50 feet from the fireplace.
The ducting system must be installed as described below:
1. Fix the adaptor at the back and/or the side of the fireplace by twist-locking the
adaptor to the fireplace. You can use more than one outlet on the fireplace (figure 19).
2. Attach the 5" flexible pipe, using the collars provided. Important: Make sure that the
plastic wrapping around the flexible pipe will not be in contact with the fireplace.
3. Route the flexible pipe to the chosen location. The ducting system can be installed
either in an upper room or in a lower room.
4. Attach the flexible pipe to the fan, using the collars (figure 20).
5. Fix the decorative grill fan adaptor to the fan.
6. Attach a standard 3" x 10" grill to the adaptor.
7. Install the blower thermostat in that part of the house to be heated by the hot air duct.
Do not install the blower thermostat in the room where the fireplace is located. A
cooling thermostat can be installed in the same room as the unit. This thermostat will
turn on the blower when the room where the fireplace is located becomes too hot.
This option requires electricity. Make sure that the connections to the fan have been
made according to the local codes and comply with their requirements.
