I purchased this blower to add it to a mid 90's Heat-n-Glo gas fireplace that never had a blower installed. The blower came very quickly from the seller and I installed it in 5 minutes. It is a little tricky to manuever the blower to where it needs to go, but not a fault of this blower.

The blower is quiet and works well. It does push some air and helps to distribute heat.

This blower was purchased to replace a 20-year old identical Regency Wood Stove blower motor. It is exactly the same motor and blower. However, you will need to retain some of the old motor wiring to cut & crimp. The new motor comes with just a crimped power cord and an attached ground wire. You will need to cannibalize the old wiring in order to use your existing power switch and thermal overload. A minor nuisance.

The new blower might also have to be rotated 90 degrees on the baseplate. In order to gain access to the bolts, you have to pinch and remove the cotter pin and then pull (hard) on the plastic blades to remove. Another minor nuisance. Make sure you have a magnetized socket screwdriver handy.

Altogether, it took my fat fingers about 30 minutes to install. The new blower is whisper quiet.

The hardest thing about these blowers was making sure I had the correct one for the fireplaces I have. I received it and had very little trouble installing it. Again, the manufacturer make the most problems. It works better than I could have imagined, to include all three blower settings. It was so good that I ordered another one because I have two fireplaces. Recommend that installation instructions from the manufacturer is downloaded before you order because the blower comes only with instructions on how to mount it and plug it in.

Don't get me wrong, this transaction went perfectly. The seller is great, and the item showed up on time as described. I was, however, surprised when I got it all set up that the fan doesn't do a whole lot: it needs more power. It still helps heat the room faster, but I was expecting a lot more. I'd probably still buy it again, as in the long run it will pay off, but don't expect your living room to be toasty in half the time.

Single speed blower. Had to index the blower motor to fit existing stove frame. Spliced wiring and motor worked great. Still going three months later. Took about two hours to do job. Hardest part was removing the squirrel cages.

We bought this item originally as an inexpensive, alternative heat source in the Winter, when we can lose electricity for hours, even days, when a bad storm rolls through.

It quickly became our main heat source -as unlike the two, 15,000 btu, electric space heaters we'd been using -this can heat a cold room within 30 minutes. And, all by itself, heats the entire house better than those two other heaters running together. And we only once turned it to the third setting. It usually stays on 1.

To clarify, we live in a very small space: 750 square feet in a very old, single-wide, with windows that no longer seal well. The weather here is moderately cold -we drop into the teens rarely, but stay solidly in the mid 20s-early 30s at night in winter. Days stay in the 30s. With the exception of if we have one of those storms, then all bets are off.

We ran this, with a little supplementary electrical heat during the day -I suspect if we'd got the 30,000 btu one, it would have heated the house completely, even on the colder days.

We don't run it at night, as it's in the living room. And because we're a little chicken of running propane when we sleep. But, in the morning, it brings the room quickly back to toasty -never more than 30 mins.

We installed it ourselves -with a bit of help from my uncle. Runs with two 50 lb=10 gal tanks. One tank lasts just about a week in the colder weather, and costs $24 to fill. So it's only a hundred a month -half what our heating bill was last year.

Last year, even with 3, electric, 15,000 btu heaters running, the house was never as toasty warm as it is with this propane heater.

Only note: If you use the tanks, only turn the knob slightly on. We found it eats through propane quicker if turned fully on. But has no apparent ill effect if the tank is only barely turned on.

And?

The blue flames are just lovely. :)

Highly recommended!

This has been a good little heater for me so far, I am using to heat a fish house. I'm not sure about the review stating that it need to be professionally installed though, to connect it to a 20 lbs cylinder (BBQ tank) you need buy a separate house with a regulator. It is available through Mr. Heater, part # F273072 (12' Propane Hose/Regulator Assembly), I purchased this at my local hardware store.

My only complaint on this heater is that the built in fan doesn't move any air. I'm not even sure why they put it in there, because it really doesn't do anything. I just bought a separate fan to circulate the air and have been pleased with it.

It would be nice if they told you the battery went under the start button, but once that was found the unit had a nice test run. When the power fails this will get the job done.

Honest reviews on Mr. Heater 20,000 BTU Propane Blue Flame Vent Free Heater

I recently installed this unit in my two car attached garage. I ran black pipe through the wall and attached it to a 20lb LP tank from my grill until I can get a bigger tank. The unit puts out good heat. It comes on at full so dont think you can adjust the output. But what it does do is bring the room up to temp then cycle off per the thermostat. Has some odor but I think that will disapate as it ages and burns off any newness. Battery operated ignition works very well. The only fault I find is the fan. It appears big enough but does not move a lot of air, design flaw perhaps. What it does do well is cycle on and off on it's own if you put it on the auto setting, good feature. I have not had it long enough to determin the gas usage, have my fingers crossed on that one. Overall I am very pleased as it out performs my electric ceiling mounted heater as well as a 23000 btu kerosene heater.

I have one of these heaters that I bought locally. If you want to connect it to a BBQ type jug you have to buy a hose and regulator. This is no big deal and anyone that has ever turned a wrench can hook this up.

Puts out lots of heat! I'm very happy with mine.

We live in an old farmhouse with high ceilings that is very drafty downstairs.We heat primarily with our wood stove which does an average job,however the wood floors can be quite cold.I was looking for something to circulate the heat more efficiently.This fan is just what my cold feet needed,I am very pleased with the design and this thing is built like a tank!My husband is going to do some temperature measurements over the weekend to see how effective it is (yes he is a geek)Having owned an Ecofan in the past I can tell you this is worth paying a little more.I will update later...

Man is this thing well built, truly like a tank as another review stated... something this robust is very rare these days. I expect it may outlast my woodstove. But beyond it's unusual robustness, it also works and it is incredibly silent. I've used it for the past 3 years on my new woodstove insert. My prior woodstove insert included an integrated fan which was incredibly noisy and unreliable. I definitely wanted to steer clear of an integrated 120V fan and I can get away without one (the ceiling fan helps), but this thermoelectric fan does help spread some heat to the lower areas around the woodstove when I first fire it up. And if lose power in my home in the winter, this fan becomes the only means to help spread the heat.

One thing to note... this fan directs air to flow opposite it's natural flow. So, while the hot air naturally rises from the woodstove, this fan pulls air from the top and blows it down or actually angled down somewhat and to the sides. I wonder if this fan could be redesigned (with the same technology and robustness) to flow air from bottom to top (like a normal woodstove fan works) and if this would be better. It probably gets complicated and depends on a lot of things. I am pretty sure however that the fan as is does help the lower area around the stove feel warmer when the stove is first fired up (before the entire room is heated up).

I sent my ecofan original back and got this for my 10,000 btu Sengoku OR77 Omni Radiant Kerosene Heater running at 275*F and it does a great job sending the hot air angling downward all around it. I also tried it on my 23,000 btu dynaglo in the basement running at 350*F and since it's only a half-inch bigger around than the heater, the air went out mostly horizontally but even faster and no hot air was detectable above either heater. The seller isn't very eager to provide info here but you can search the web for pics and specs (and prices). It's a lot bigger and heavier than the ecofan but much more effective and robust and it's not that much more expensive than the heavily taxed canadian product so it's really a bargain.

Reviews of Drolet High-Efficiency Wood Stove - 95,000 BTU, Model# HT2000

Customer Ratings:

We have used this stove in a 2200 sq ft central MN home for about 2/3 of a heating season and are happy with it.

I too rec'd the T-stat and fan options. Although they don't move a lot of air away from the stove they do help significantly and will do so quietly at up to 2/3 output on the rheostat speed control.

It's a very modern design with secondary combustion, a tight seal, easy ash disposal and a nice door window that stays clean fairly well once the new paint and metal oils have baked off (2 weeks or so of medium fires).

We got it for $1000 (+tax) locally and moved it ourselves. It is about 500 lbs so get a good 2 wheeler with straps or 2 husky men to move it. You can easily pay about $2000 for a similar quality stove. It looks real nice too although its not in the catagory of a "decorator appliance". It can put out a lot of heat and hold a lot of fuel. It is capable of keeping our home warm for 8 hours in -F temps and have enough coals left to refuel without relighting (using a good seasoned hardwood like oak, maple, elm. etc.). Soft woods would be OK for less demanding needs (less hours of less output). Getting up midevening or relighting on chilly mornings gets to be a pain after a few years.

Its a XLG stove and I wouldn't put it into a situation where it heats less than 1500 sq ft. It would overheat it or smolder too much at the min. setting.

I wish the design had a T-stat bimetal inlet damper feature. It does not and is not available. I would consider that to be a very nice improvement.

This stove is big, but well worth our money. It accommodates two full sized skillets at once. It boils water in a jiffy, lights easily and burns clean. We cooked under a canopy with ample overhead ventilation with no problems. No odor or discoloring our pans. I loved that the stove's bottom didn't get more than warm when cooking. We used it with a plastic table cover under it with no problem. It stayed lit in very windy conditions. As advertised, the auxiliary burner is less powerful than the main, but was still plenty hot enough to cook on its own. Downsides? Size if you're not car camping. It's the size and weight of a large briefcase, and even larger when in the box. Another issue: in broad daylight, it was difficult to tell if the burner was still lit -quickly passing a hand over the burner was sufficient to answer that question. To light the auxiliary burner you must briefly turn the main burner up to medium or higher -tricky if you're already cooking something on low over the main. Finally, it is difficult to empty the fuel tank of extra fuel when packing up, though it can be stored with fuel. We consider these minor detractions. Bottom line: the stove performs great and we love it and recommend it.

Our 21 year old Coleman stove, model 424, from 1991 (the date is stamped on the bottom, along with "Made in U.S.A."), has been on many camping trips, and has been extremely reliable over many years and through all kinds of weather. It has never been repaired, and still works fine to this day.

This summer, we're taking a group camping, so I decided to get a second Coleman stove to augment the first one. But after reading the reviews here, I almost didn't buy a new one. Don't let the negative reviews scare you from buying it.

It's important to read and follow the instructions that come with the stove.

I compared this one with our 21 year old model, it's the same good quality. The latch is the same as the old one. The gas tank holds in its slots just fine. The wind guards are strong, flexible, and lightweight. The burners are exactly the same as the ones on my old Coleman stove and work wonderfully. The only real difference I see between my old Coleman and this one is the pump of the new one uses some plastic parts, and might not be quite as sturdy. But the rest of the unit looks and works just fine.

The gauge of the steel may not be what it was 50 years ago, but it's the much the same as 21 years ago, with an added feature: the steel is textured, which adds strength and resists scratching. You cannot make a dent in it with your thumb. Yes, pressing down on the cover moves it, just like pressing on the side of your car does, but it does not dent it.

This stove is made in the U.S.A. Those who complain about cheap Chinese manufacturing may have a counterfeit, not a real Coleman. Are there counterfeit stoves out there?

This is a great stove. I recommend it. I've been using Coleman stoves for more than 50 years. The oldest one I now have is 21 years old, and this new one which I just received, looks and works just fine.

This stove works very well, with good wind protection. Most importantly, if you live in any area where a natural disaster could occur, such as earthquakes or hurricanes, this stove can really be a lifesaver! My sister used one after Hurricane Andrew and we have ours primarily because it is a valuable addition to our earthquake survival kit. The liquid fuel stores easily for years in a contained area, and it is very easy to use and control.

Honest reviews on Coleman 2-Burner Dual Fuel Powerhouse Liquid Fuel Stove

I have two of these stoves (one is over 20 years old and one is the model covered in this review and it's about 4 years old); they have seen a lot of use. Very easy to use and rugged, I take both of them along when car camping because my family loves to camp and this allows the ultimate in outdoor cooking flexibility for use with our drip coffee maker and griddle. The folded up stove encloses the fuel tank, cooking grate and windscreens and is about the size of a briefcase.

Liquid fuel is the most reliable and hottest way to do camp cookery because it's easy to start and keep running while requiring very little maintenance. The dual fuel model gives you the option of using unleaded gasoline which is cheaper and more universally available than the most common fuels: a. Coleman Fuel (naphtha) or b. propane.

You can depend on this appliance during the harshest conditions including those times when power goes out at the house; down through the years I haven't had to think twice about using it to melt snow, boil water or make coffee at home during a power outage.

Buy Coleman quality stoves with confidence and enjoy more of the great outdoors.

In all fairness, the sheet metal in the latest model years might not be that of last decade. It is flimsier than my friend's '70s Coleman stove, but mine is so much lighter. Two sides to the same coin I guess.

The important parts, i.e. the burners and generator seem to be of the same quality as before, so I have no complaints!

We rented this machine from an events store for the weekend. It was a huge hit, and the machine performed flawlessly. We are so impressed we're planning on buying one (or two) for our next event.

Before bringing it home my wife received a few instructions on it's operation, and a few hints on getting it to flow well. Basically, if it's not level you're going to need to feed it more chocolate to get it to flowing perfectly. This machine comes with leveling screws under its base and it was a breeze to get it level... and our dining room table has a fairly moderate lean to it.

In case you can't see, the unit comes with several buttons. A primary power button, a flow On button, a flow Off button, and four different heat setting buttons: Off/Low/Med/High.

This unit is capable of melting chocolate. The first night we pre-melted the chocolate, but the second night we had an extra 60 minute prep time so we just placed the chocolate on the dish and turned the heating unit on High. We couldn't tell a difference in taste at all. In the future we'll probably pre-melt it cause it's faster overall.

We used the Sephra brand milk chocolate bags. To be fair these are found for about double the price of the raw ingredients you could make yourself, but in my opinion oh-so-worth-it. From what my wife was told Sephra uses coconut oil as the primary base so that it melts consistently and at a lower temperature. If you want children dipping into hot chocolate you'll appreciate the lower melting point of the coconut oil, and the 'Low' setting of this unit. In the future we're going to play around with adding additional ingredients like peanut butter, spices, and flavorings.

The machine ran for about 5 hours consecutively without any sort of hickup. Near the end of the night instead of adding more chocolate I let it run with a bit of a 'step' to the flow.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS:

1) If the chocolate hasn't settled then continue to step 2. If you're cleaning it the next day then just turn the heating unit on High and wait about 45-90 minutes (depending on the chocolate you've used) and then run it for a few minutes to finish melting the chocolate on the tiers.

2) Unplug the machine. Disassemble the tier set and after a quick rinse you can put the three different platters in the dishwasher on the top rack. Or hand wash, it's easy either way.

3) Remove the funnel and hand wash. Use hot soapy water and the chocolate comes right out. (Perhaps another selling point to the coconut oil based chocolate)

4) Use a damp rag to clean the surface of unit base.

List Price: $129.99
Sale Price: $129.96

This unit doesn't work for me. But for some it is the right product.

Pros:

Very attractive and seemingly high quality. The glass looks great in any room with other black glass rectangles, a very common thing these days. The LCD display is a nice retro touch.

The power cord is comfortingly heavy duty and not flimsly like most heaters.

The thermostat seems accurate.

Cons:

Not hot enough! It took way too long to warm up the room for my taste. It doesn't heat as well as microthermic heaters.

Not compatible with a device like the Lux programmable thermostat. When the power is shut off, all settings are reset, including the Celsius display. The mode has to be changed after you plug it back in, meaning it won't work merely by turning on the power switch.

The controls are unintuitive, and the remote can't be seen in the dark.

There is no temperature down button, only temperature up, so you have quite a lot of pressing and beeping in order to lower the auto temperature. This was truly annoying.

I'm not convinced it has any special technology beyond a heating element heating the glass. Most of the heat comes out of a vent above the heating element, not the glass.

UPDATE: 1/3/12. We used it over the holidays to give it the old college try, and after a few days of use, the unit became inexplicably noisy, making a surprising number of squeaks and rattles for something that doesn't seem to have moving parts. I cannot really recommend this heater to anyone, and had to downgrade to two starts. It does appear to be safely constructed or else I'd lower it even more.

Pros:

Nice design

Heats well*

Does not dry the air which is awesome! We use this in a cold drafty room and it ends up nice and toasty after a bit.

Comes with remote

Cons:

It always starts at Celsius rather than Fahrenheit which is annoying unless you are used to it.

Thermostat is inaccurate for us so we figured to bump it up 2 degrees to get the right amount of heat in Auto mode most of the time.*

Beep is very loud when setting temp or mode so we do it as quickly as we can so as to not disturb the kids when they are sleeping.

We have been using this now for several months through a very cold Los Angeles winter, in my drafty 100 year old house and it's worked great. It heats up quicker than I expected and while it doesn't make our bedroom 'surface of the sun' hot, that is fine as it's not what I was looking for. The heater has worked flawlessly and is absolutely quiet while operating. To address a couple issues tht have been brought up, yes it has no button to lower the temp which yes is a very odd oversight indeed, and yes it's odd that the unit defaults to centigrade. However both these are true non issues, it takes two seconds to recitfy the need to lower the temp and another two seconds to rectify the centegrade issue, in other words this is truly a case of making a mountain out of a mole hill.

I'd happily buy several of these for every part of my house.

This heater blew a fuse twice in my office, causing my coworkers' computers to shut down and lose unsaved information. The darn thing comes on for 2 seconds every 5 minutes so I'm constantly cold.

While this little heater creates heat it isnt what I wanted at all. First of all I realized that it has no safety features. If it tips over unto the rug, it just keeps going! A real fire hazard. Also also the front heat control knob says "off" you cant really turn it off without pulling the plug out of the wall, rather inconvenient. And as one of the reviewers mentioned its a real drain on a circuit, throwing the circuit breaker in the first day of use. Last year I bought a Pelonis for less and it was far better.

Best Deals for Honeywell HZ-315 Ceramic Heater

Wow, what a fine example of terrible engineering. The only control is a knob that ranges from OFF to SUPER. To set the thermostat, you turn the knob to the SUPER setting. When the room reaches a comfortable level, you slowly turn the thermostat down until the heater goes off. This is the point at which the thermostat setting equals the room temp. At this setting, the thermostat will automatically turn on and off to maintain the selected temp.

This design sets the stage for a frustrating user experience:

By design, you must turn the thermostat to the highest setting, then WAIT FOR THE ROOM TO HEAT UP before fiddling with the knob until the unit clicks off, at which point you end up turning it up a bit until it clicks on (if it does). Its like trying to adjust your home's thermostat in the dark...just show me where to set the dial for 68 degrees and let me get on with my day.

when the heater is working as designed, it turns on for 30-60 seconds, turns off for 10-90 seconds, then repeats the cycle relentlessly and unpredictably until you unplug it, let it cool, box it back up, and send it back.

I want a refund, reimbursement for lost productivity, and an ice cream sandwich.

Honeywell HZ-315 Ceramic Heater

Greetings to whom it may concern. I purchased two of these HZ-315 ceramic heaters on January 28, 2009. Both vibrated across a smooth hard floor surface, very unsafe behavior for an electrical heating appliance. It was too costly to ship back even though they said they'd waive the return fee at customer service. Heater #1 failed on March 20th, didn't even last 2 months. I would advise to steer clear of this model, it's not the quality product you'd expect from a company like Honeywell and doesn't appear to be built to last either. The company I bought it from was very professional and timely, I did not contact them for a replacement. I wouldn't have wanted it anyway.
