Hey all. Been almost a year since I got lots of great advice from a lot of u. I went with the alderlea t5 last year. It is installed in a large walkin fireplace in my old farmhouse. Just drew up and bent up a big daddy block off plate (3 piece) to install hopefully this weekend (pic attached). It will attach around where u see the white stop on the walls just by/above the lintle........
This is 10 feet wide!! Am going to pack bats of roxul on top. Hoping in the old stone I can get a decent fit with masonry screws around perimeter. Wondering if I should go to the extent of spray foaming any gaps?
I am looking for more advice of course.... I am thinking of mounting one or two small 5 inch door jam fans to the roof of this block off to push the hot air Into the room vs. paying the three hundred for the alderlea fan. My thought process is by mounting them to the block off plate I will help really circulate the heat still in that large cavity out in the room better than the stove fan...... Thoughts??
