Hello
Well, I just did a quick pick up of another stove. A US Stove 5660 MFD 06-20-2011 but owner purchased in 2012 and used the stove only 2 months.
Now the only complaint I have heard about these stoves is the blowers are noisey on some stoves. Both blowers are made by Fasco, so they are good motors. I cleaned up the stove tonight and fired it up. The exhaust blower was fine no excessive noise at all. Then after the stove heated up the room blower came on and sure enough it is noisey! So I checked it at different heat levels in manual mode and the higher heat levels were less noisey. Then after running the stove for a while it seamed to calm down and not be noisey at all! So I shut it down and took a pic. It is a Fasco blower mounted face down into the plenum which looked like it was almost laying on it's side at the bottom of the stove! This is certainly a different setup for a room blower! See pic below. I will remove it tomorrow and check it out.
Has anyone experience noise like this and seen a room blower like this? Any suggestions on the noise?
