Forced air

[Al]

Looking to install forced air on my 2x5 1/2 evaporator. What size blower would you reccomend and how far back from the evaporator would you put it? Planning to install it in the back of the firebox. What's a good company out there to buy a blower motor from?
Thanks and take care!

Al,

If you are going to buy a motor and make your own, probably should make a duct like the evaporator companies sell and mount the blower to the duct and the duct to the evaporator. OR, make a duct that goes underneath the grates with holes in the top of the duct to get even air distribution. Don't know much about this type, but have seen it mentioned before?? :?

Go to a fireplace store that sells used blowers. You can pick one up cheap and they last for a long time.
