After 14 yrs. I finally had to replace my distribution blower in my Harman XXV. You have no idea how loud the blower is until you have a new one. Can hardly hear it run now. Best and only money I ever spent on the stove in 14 yrs. Thanks for all the help.

14 is great, especially if you never oiled,lubed/cleaned it!
On the XXV the dist blower is very difficult to clean or oil unless you remove it from the stove. Being mounted from the bottom it is not an easy job to remove and reinstall on a regular basis and not pinch wires ect. You really cant even get in to clean around the bearings,rotor since it is tucked up tight under the exhaust
