Durablow MFB010 BK BKT GA3650 GA3700 GA3750 Replacment Fireplace Blower Fan Unit for Desa, FMI, Vanguard, Vexar, Comfort Flame Glow, Rotom

Product is well constructed and quiet. Bought as a replacement blower for a Vogelzang Colonial fireplace insert. WAY cheaper than manufacturers blower unit and it does fit nicely into the existing blower housing with only slight modification. More powerful blower as well. Hopefully it will hold up better than the OEM model which I have gone through 3 in 2.5 years. Bearings go bad very quickly in the OEM and after repacking them several times they finally give up the ghost. I will repost when I get significant hours on this unit from Pay and Pack and provide an update.**UpdateHave used this fan for one full heating season for Vogelzang woodburning fireplace insert. Unlike the OEM units that were expensive and didn't hold up, this unit has and continues to perform flawlessly. Excellent product.

Found this blower while searching for something less noisy than the one I had. I've had it installed for 3 weeks now. The install was easy and it's working fine for it's price and air flow rating. I'm very pleased with the noise level, it's a very quiet blower, however, if you are looking for something that puts out a lot of air you might want to keep looking as this unit doesn't provide a lot of air flow, enough for my purposes. All in all, for the price it's a good buy.

So far the blower blows fairly strong and quite until you crank it up, then it gets fairly loud. We will see how it holds up during the winter months ahead but so far I'm happy with the purchase.

I wont say what stove i have due to the fact that this product was not a part listed as a replacement. That being said, other discontinued fan assemblies had listed for 300 to 400 {yes, hundreds} and werent even availble. I purchased this unit because it looked closest to the motor i needed for my pellet stove. It arrived earlier than expected, packaged great, and when i started looking at how i could modify it for my needs, it was the exact same part i took out. Truthfully, I tapped three holes {threaded with a tap} transferred the mounting plate to the new fan. It fit perfectly. I started reading up on the wiring thinking that id probably end up hotwiring it somehow. Its set up to turn on at 120 and off at 90 degrees. {dont quote me on the exact numbers} . in a very short time the fan was back in, i started the stove, and damed thing worked , its been running for 4 days, only stopping for ash cleaning. Now, I do hear the fan running but not enough to bother me, i know its working at least. and even if it only lasts a season, im fine with that, ill buy 3 more just to keep. so in a nut shell. outstanding purchase

I purchased a name brand blower for my parents at almost $300. When my blower of 6 years quit working, I did not want to spend that much money on a replacement, so I looked around and found this one. It was much cheaper and as far as I can tell, works about the same as the expensive one I purchased for the folks. My set-up enables adjustment of the fan speed and has the thermostat, which kicks the blower on when temps reach 100 degrees. This purchase was for the blower only, without the rheostat and thermostat pieces since I already had them. The noise level is good; I keep mine at slightly higher than the mid-range point. Turned up all the way, it is obviously louder, but nothing terrible. It is quieter than my previous no name brand fan that utilized fans similar to what you would see in a tower computer. My flatscreen is mounted over the mantel and the noise level does not interfere with the TV volume that much at all. I've used it off and on for about a month, and overall I would recommend this blower if you want to save some money.

Lasted all of a month. Really disappointed

This blower is very quiet and well-balanced compared to a Hongso BK BKT GA3650 that I bought 3 years ago. The Hongso was out of balance from the beginning. It made my DESA gas insert vibrate creating a terrible sound. The only way I could control the sound was to reduce the fan speed. The durablow fan was balanced well at the factory as can be seen by very small weights attached directly to the blower wheel. It also came with double stick foam pads to attach it to my existing fireplace walls. The foam pads also help with stopping any noise created by the fan from being transmited to the sheet metal back wall of the gas insert and making it act like a sound amplifier. Great blower.

This thing pumps out some air....if you are upstairs or something great!....but my fireplace is below my tv stand....and full velocity makes more noise than my tv.......so....I can adjust it, to a slower speed which would make it quieter, but my old one was half the sound...at full blast.....Its LOUD! but only 30 bucks so.... I had magnets on my old blower..this has velcro with some very sticky backing...get it in place carefully. Just a FYI...hope this helps.

This worked perfect. Exact fit for my Enviro Empress pellet stove

Pour mettre dans un foyer au gaz.
