This is an introduction to the installation of a heat n glo fireplace blower.
On my heat n glo gas fireplace the blower doesn t go on when the flame goes off like it always did.
I was told to press the temperature sensor switch.
If your blower runs but is noisy buy just the motor fan assembly.
I tested the blower motor it is fine.
It will also automatically turn the blower off when the fireplace is turned off and the unit cools to a certain temperature.
The blower motor supplements the heat produced by the gas burners by pushing air with a fan.
In that case buy a complete kit.
We bought just the blower for the 14 year old heat glo gas fireplace shown here.
If the blower motor is not working properly try troubleshooting the equipment to check for common problems.
Remove the old fireplace air blower.
Regularly clean the fan and the motor of your blower to help it work at its optimal level.
If you are faced with a technical question or warranty issue that is not addressed in this section please contact your local heat glo dealer.

If your pilot light stays lit but the fireplace won t start then the problem is likely related to your thermopile a metal probe round and slightly smaller than your pinky finger that converts heat from the burning pilot light s flame into a tiny amount of electricity just enough to open the gas valve when a switch such as a wall.
Now the flame goes off and goes back on after a while but no fan.
Using a wire brush to get through the vents can easily push the build up out.
If your fireplace burns wood then you will want to clean the blower once every few months as soot creosote and ash can build up rather quickly.
The blower is typically wired to the thermostat to activate when the fire reaches a certain temperature.
