Help on Electronic Problem

I have a fireplace in the room where I have my stereo and when the fireplace powers up the blower to dissipate heat from the fireplace, I hear static (sometimes loud static) coming through my speakers. I have a PS audio power purifier that I plug my system into. Yet I still hear the static (whether music is playing or not). What is this and what do I do?

It is a gas fireplace. When it is about to have the fan go on, the static starts... often the static stops once the fan is on (though, not always). It does have a full-time pilot light. I am not sure if I can control when the fan is on or not.

By the way... thank you everyone.

I definitely do not know what I am doing! I will call the fireplace people.

I was thinking that maybe it was a wall wiring issue (older home --- thinking that the FP when the fan went on overloaded the circuit or something --- yeah... I do not know what i am doing) but not one of you asserted such... so I will call them up.

Once more.. thank you all for your help... I will give the fireplace people your guys posts when he arrives.
