You have to use the candle test to determine if they are working.
Watch the smoke when holding the candle in front of the exit vent.



Use an incense stick for smoke. You can even close the fireplace door
to watch. . A fan will blow out the candle and the fireplace flame may
melt the wax..


Is it that delicate of a flow? I can sense air movement from the hair
on my hand while on the high setting.

Are not most gas fireplace fans tied into a thermostat? This one is.
You can over ride it too. So if one uses the thermostat it will only
blow warm air.
