Heat N Glo Fireplace Blowers
A fireplace blower is a great way to slash your heating costs. The huge downfall with wood burning fireplaces is that they produce an uneven amount of heat. While a small area receives the benefits most of your house does not receive any of that heat. This is a huge waste because your house's heating bills could be heavily reduced if only you could take advantage of all this extra energy. Thats where a fireplace blower comes in handy. Fireplace blowers that can fit your Heat N Glo fireplace are widely available and can pay for themselves in energy savings in a matter of months.A fireplace blower, also referred to as a hearth blower, works by fanning all the heat your fireplace produces out into your living area. Installation is a snap too, you only need to take a couple easy measurements.
Heat N Glo Blowers Save Money!
A fireplace blower functions to maximize the effectiveness of your existing fireplace by driving the heat it makes out into the room. A typical fireplace only produces heat in the small area around it while most of the useful heat travels up the chimney. A fireplace blower fixes this issue by forcing all of this lost heat out into your house. Once this hot air is pushed out into your room it will then travel all over the house, providing you an easy and cheap source of warmth. Save tons on your heating bill by simply adding a fan to your fireplace!
The blower will plug into any standard 110 volt outlet that is near your fireplace and does not use much power to give you all that free heat. The blower even knows when to turn itself off so it will not run up your electricity bill either.

Choosing the Right Blower
Lets take a look at how to get ready to install your new Heat N Glo fireplace blower.
Find Your Nearest Power Outlet
The first decision in choosing your new Heat N Glo fireplace heater depends on where you have a electrical outlet located. Figure out whether your electrical outlet is on the left or right side of the fireplace and then measure from the electrical outlet to the fireplace. If your power outlet is located on the right side of your fireplace you will need a "right handed model." Otherwise you will need to get a "left handed model." This refers to where the motor is located on your fireplace heater so the cord will not get in the way of your fire.
Measuring the Size of Your brick hearth Interior
The next step is to measure the size of your fireplace interior. This will help you pick a hearth heater that will fit properly in your fireplace. Measure across the width of the front of the fireplace opening and then measure from the front of the hearth interior to the back to get the depth. Picking a properly sized fireplace blower will make sure that you get the most for your money and if you have a set of Heat N Glo fireplace doors the hearth blower will fit snugly behind them.
Benefits of the Heat N Glo Fireplace Blower
One of the best features of a Heat N Glo fireplace blower is its ability to shut itself on and off automatically without fumbling with any switches. The blower automatically comes on when your fireplace reaches 110 degrees, pushing all that inexpensive heat into your home. When the fireplace cools down below 90 degrees the blower shuts off by itself, keeping you from having to shut it off yourself.
