I just installed a blower on my freestanding stove and was wondering at what temp will it kick on if ran on auto?? Im up to 425 and still no blower. It does work on manual if that was gonna be a question. Thanks for any info.
 
It has probably kicked on by now, but if it hasn't, make sure the little snap disc that's attached to the blower on the end of a thin metal mounting plate is pressing against the backwall of the stove. Bend the mounting plate as neccessary to ensure firm contact, so the snap disc can properly sense the temperature of the stove.
 
The back bottom of the stove where the "sensor" is located will not get up to temp initially like the stove top, so when you clean out the stove etc, it will take a while for that section of the stove to warm up and trigger the fan.

FYI the fan will cycle on and off as the stove cools so don't be alarmed...
