just installed my blower
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.

Works lovely
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.

Disappointed
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.

Great product, easy install
Product is great, installed myself. Moves heat around nicely. Value was exceptional. Purchased it online and installed myself saved $500. From ordering locally.

Best Motor for the money
This blower motor is very quiet when running. It is balanced well so it will not rattle the sheet metal in the prefab fireplaces. This blower will fit in most any direct vent or ventless fireplace. The thermostatic switch will even work in ventless fireplaces, just reach in and slide it up the side wall far as you can reach. Drill hole through bottom louver to mount variable speed switch.... This is the only one I buy...
