GFK-160A Fireplace Blower Fan Kit for Heat & Glo fireplace

Super simple to install. Hardest part was cleaning the dust out of the unit. Great instructions, everything fit in the factors holes and places. I think it took 20 minutes to actually install. I run it at about 50% (ceiling fan in the room) and I can barely hear it. If you were to run it at 100% speed you would hear the hum and wind noise. So far super impressed with the unit.

My Hearth-Home fireplace was pre-wired for this, with the power strip setup, and so this install literally took 10 minutes, with at least half of that spent carefully reading the directions. I connected the plug wires to the blower assembly, affixed the ground wire and slid the blower into place. Then I plugged the two wires into the power strip and plugged it in. That's it! It works like a charm, and I saved over $300 by doing it myself. Fireplace stores that do this work wanted $300 for the motor, $100 for a service fee for coming out, and another $50-$100 for the actual install. For something that should take them less than 10 minutes.

So much more quiet than the old one while was going through its death rattles. Lots more warm air being efficiently circulated which is saving me money and making the room warmer.

Great advice as to which kit fitted, prompt delivery and clear installation directions. Blower works quietly and efficiently to improve room heating. Thank you!

Thanks for your capable help

This was way easier to install than expected. Took longer to clean the area than install. Blower does seem to be louder than expected but you can reduce speed to comfortable level. Would recommend the purchase

Very helpful with ordering questions. Profuct and ease of installation was just as represented. Extremely satisfied and would highly recommend.

This was a very simple install and makes my Heat & Glo unit heat much more evenly. We are enjoying our unit more now with the nice even distribution of heat in the room. I tired one unit and now I am going to do another one since it turned out so great.

Warms the entire first floor in my ranch home. Variable speed makes even better. So glad I bought this fan, gets pretty cold in Colorado during winter time.

I read many reviews on the numerous blowers and purchase this one. It’s not the least expensive unit and I thought it would be a quality. It was easy to install but does not move much air on the slower speed and is very noisy at the higher speed. For the money I expected more. ------------------------------------------ MyFireplaceBlower Response: Feel free to contact us to double check this blower is installed correctly and we can go through some trouble shooting techniques.
