    The entire research and purchase process was outstanding. The product arrived when they said it would, and the blower kit is of excellent quality. It was a pleasure doing business with Fireplace Products. Thank you.

    We have an 30 year old Desa (could be FMI) fireplace insert that we'll occasionally use during cool Fall and Winter nights. The fireplace is mostly nice to look at, that is, until we added the blower kit. Installation was fairly easy even at our age (73 and bad knees) and made an immediate difference in room temperature. It's not loud either, which was a pleasant surprise my wife is happy about. The videos were very helpful!

    Pretty easy install. Had to move a few things out of the way to fit it into position, but other than that working like a charm.
