Questions people ask us
Will it fit my fireplace?
Skytech designed it for many hearth products. The blower measures 12-3/4" W x 4-3/8" H x 4-5/16" D, and your appliance manual decides whether a fan kit is allowed and where it mounts. Send us the model and we will check.
How does the fan know when to run?
The temperature sensor mounts flat on the burner pan base or outside the combustion casing, facing the fire. It turns the fan on at 110°F and off below 90°F. The rheostat knob sets the speed, and you can always turn the fan off with it.
How is it different from the FK-180-ESC?
Both are dual fan blower kits. This one uses a rheostat and a temperature sensor, while the FK-180-ESC uses Skytech's FK-ESC electronic speed control.
