My friend has an Avalon PS900. In looking for a new combustion fan, I found they were very expensive. So me being me, I scoured the internets and cross referenced specs on many different similar motors. I was lucky enough to find an inducer for a different type of equipment with same specs and rotation. In fact, the cage it came with looks to be a direct replacement for many of the pellet stoves I looked into as a possible replacement. The motor bolted right up.

I offered someone a link to my source, as I paid $30 for a brand new motor vs $220-$330, in exchange for bottom dollar deal on an ignitor for her. But then it occured to me that I may even be able to get somebody to send me one for free if I trade them an opportunity to buy the remaining up and make $85K if they priced them nearly $100 cheaper than what I had found before trying to cross reference something cheaper. Maybe even more because it would be bulk shipping and you could laugh all the way to the bank.
 
I don't have $36K to purchase the remaining inducers, nor am I in the business of selling pellet stove parts.
