I would have to agree with Al hear. It does not just come out and say it but it is implied. I highly doubt you would make it through an inspection with no victor fan on.

All in all its not needed unless there is a lot of current draw i suppose. But FIRST does want them on. Its better to be safe then sorry with victors anyways considering they aren't exactly "cheap".
