    hi all. Pellet burner here for almost 15 years now but burn a little wood also on the weekends. I picked up a fireplace gray similar to the one in the pic. Mine uses just 1 blower. The blower I have is very loud. I’ve take it apart to clean and lube but still not happy with it. Anyone know what type of blowers these are in this picture and where I might be able to get one. Ty much

    Last time I saw a heat exchanger like that it was for a brick fireplace that might have been in an extremely large room. Like a room that makes my parents house look small. I stood next to it thinking, some serious cordage has laid ash to this. Too bad I didn’t take a picture, it was at a salvage yard where some parts of old schools like desks that were built into the floor were sent to and sold...talk about some history.

    Hope you find what you’re looking for. I haven’t seen these used but hopefully they make a fireplace more heat efficient than without one.
