I have been all over the web and found this great site. I have a 30 odd year old Ember Hearth stove on which the blower motor is fading fast.

The Motor says on it: High Tech Zion ILL 60099 (long gone) 484T 1550 RPM Cust # 367-004 Model H00104484T
Dimensions are (close) 5 & 7/8" long with shaft, shaft 2 & 1/4", Motor alone 3 & 5/8" long, Diameter 3", 110 V, single speed.

I have looked on the electric motor websites and the wood stove sites. The motors don't match or they want to sell you a whole new blower unit for more than the stove is worth,
besides which the blower flange is 9 & 1/2" wide and 5" high. Nobody comes close.

It's just a little motor and should be simple to replace but I am striking out. Any assistance would be most appreciated as the nights are already
in the 40s up here at 7700 feet. Thanks!
 
Your best bet is a local electrical repair shop. If they can't nail a motor to replace it they can rebuild the one you have. Of course taking that motor and stove to the landfill and getting a newer more efficient stove would save you a lot of money or labor in wood consumption and provide more heat.
