Question
I have a Martin Industries wood stove modle no CWH-30A and I was wondering if I need fire brick to run or do I need to run the fan at all times. thanks so much for any info

Answer
Hello Jeffrey, not sure how that stove works (there are literally hundreds of stove manufacturer, and models, can't know them all)
you should follow the owners manual and what they recommend for their unit's use
with out it I would replace the stove, if you still want to use it then yes it should have firebrick and you should run the fan.
