What blower is recommended for this unit?
1 Answer
This firebox uses the optional <a href="https://www.efireplacestore.com/cui-fbb5.html">FBB5 blower</a>, which is a single-speed blower, but you could add the <a href="https://www.efireplacestore.com/cui-scv1.html">SCV1 variable speed switch</a> instead, if desired.

Can this fireplace be mounted in a wall with a 55" TV above it (without damaging the TV)?
1 Answer
For this type of installation, I strongly suggest installation of a mantel that is at least as deep as the television to protect it. Vent free fireplaces release a large amount of heat to the area directly above them and they are prone to damaging sensitive electronics without a mantel or shelf of some sort.
