Comes standard with an superbly balanced, powerful and quiet 180 CFM blower.  The blower is constructed of professional grade materials, including high-grade Japanese sealed ball bearings, high temperature rated composite wheels and a rust-free powder coated galvanized steel chassis.  The blower has a 5° pitched air flange to ensure all available air flow is transfered directly up the backside of your fireplace.  It's roller bearing motor is energy efficient and will significantly improve the heating efficiency of your fireplace.  The kit is pre-wired and fully assembled for super easy installation!

  • Adding blower to Heatilator Fireplace

    The fireplace in my 20 year old home never had a blower. It didn't make much heat and overheated the mantle above the fireplace. Adding the blower greatly improved the usefulness of the fireplace. Installation was straightforward and no problems. Fastest blower speed was too noisy but it worked great on lower speed to heat the room. Mantle isn't too hot now. Very pleased with the blower.

    Arrived from USPS with both the exterior and interior box damaged and torn open. However the contents seemed to be ok and undamaged. Install was fairly easy, maybe about 20 minute total. Have yet to see if it works, as it’s been a bit warm to fire up the fireplace. I gave it 4 stars because the website showed that Velcro rub strips would be included to prevent the it from rubbing on the firebox, there were none in the package of hardware.

  • Great replacement product.

    I purchased a GFK-160A kit last year and ended up not using it until recently. I feel it was a good quality replacement product which includes everything needed for a seamless repair. I decided to purchase another kit to keep on the shelf should I need it in the future. Because my fireplace is over 20yrs old, I feel some of these parts may become obsolete.
