The Canadian-built blower that we received is well constructed. The assembly came pre-wired and installed promptly. It is efficient. In testing with an infrared temp gun, we find that the heat now directed into the livingroom area is substantially higher. Heat dissipating into the mantle and walls surrounding the gas-log 39" Majestic fireplace went down substantially. This means the heat is going into the room instead of super-heating the wall around the fireplace. We feel safer, warmer and are able to use the gas-log fireplace efficiently. With an overhead fan in the room and a well-insulated home, on a sub-freezing night we can heat most of the house to 71-degrees F without the forced air furnace running. This enables us to enjoy the gas-log fireplace as a utility item and not just a cosmetic device. Some complain of the noise, but our unit came with sturdy attachment magnets that allow firm mounting. If set up squarely against the rear wall and floor as recommended, vibration and resonating noise can be minimized. We removed the original Velcro strips to fit the fan unit firmly against the sheet metal. If you get a unit like ours, with the motor pre-wired and magnet mounting, you should be happy. Yes, the unit does make noise, so expect to turn up the television volume! The blower models with adjustable speed might provide quieter operation at lower speeds. Our unit did not come with any instructions. It would be helpful to many if there were details included on how to position the blower unit.

I am very glad that I bought this blower. It works just like they said it would and has a little noise but not really that loud. I would not expect that it would be completely silent. It has the magnets on the back and sides which makes it easy to install. I also bought a Thermal Switch so it goes on when the fireplace it hot and goes off when it has cooled down so you don't waist any heat and don't have to worry about turning it on or off.
