A bit noisier than I would prefer
Installation was pretty straightforward. It works but is a bit noisier than I would prefer. Noise is ok on lowest settings but they have very little air flow. Higher settings put out decent air but are quite loud.

Well Made
This is a very well-made Fireplace Blower. It has actually turned the fireplace into a heater instead of a picture. Very happy with this product.

Fireplace Blower Fan
After we ordered the blower fan for our gas fireplace insert, we found the instructions fairly easy to follow (not being electricians) and installed with no snags. It works well!

Simple and effective
Easily saved myself half the hardware cost and no service call requiring missed work. Installed in 30-45, taking pictures and cleaning up as I went. Now I'm enjoying warmth and it worked perfectly! Overhead fans are already jealous

Gas fireplace blower
It took about 3 days to receive and about 30 minutes to install. Works like a charm. And the price was great as well.

Blower Kit Install GFK-160B
This project took me 20 minutes and works fantastically! The directions were extremely clear and easy to follow and were dead on to my model type. I saved over $450.00 by doing this myself and my neighbors are all asking me to help them with theirs as well. This device makes a huge difference in heat distribution and energy savings. I have been running without a hitch for over 2 weeks. Buy it now, I promise you won’t be disappointed!

Quiet and functional, easy install
This blower is great. Fan is quiet and it has 4 speed settings to choose from. High quality motor. Magnetic feet makes installation super simple. Wiring is very easy to do and the instruction is clear. I finished the installation in 15 minutes.

Function/Installation
I rate this much better than the A model. It does not require a thermocouple but rather sets a time to turn fan on and off before and after ignition. It also has an off position, and 4 speeds. Installation is pretty easy. I'm not a contractor so it was the only install I've done.
