This blower is designed for fireplace inserts with blowers but mine was not designed with a blower. My Osburn insert is quite old and heavy. It does, however, have an air channel underneath, behind and on top for air to circulate on its own. Warm air comes out the top vent but the blower makes it much more efficient. It works so well it heats the room quicker.
There is a small shelf that extends forward at the bottom of the door with about 4 inches of space underneath. The blower fits into this space perfectly. Better than my old 3 blade computer type fan which sat in front of the insert.(it was noisier)
The blower moves room air underneath the bottom and hot air out the top. It makes some fan noise, but not so loud as to be objectionable. All that's left for me to do is to paint the housing of the blower black so that it matches the insert.(No shine) Does what it is designed to do as it upgrades my insert. No worries mate.This fan works perfect and was easy to install. no directions are included, but if you need them then you should have someone else do the work.
