New St Croix Tangential Convection Blower. Where is the Anti-Vibration Foam?

[Don2222]

Hello


The most popular blower for many St. Croix pellet stoves is the:
80P20003-R

Since many of these blowers are mounted under the stove in a metal box like the popular St. Croix Hastings, the engineers had a fix for the vibration noise by gluing foam to the bottom of the blower.

I just got a new blower and there is No Foam!

So I pit in a strip of white lytherm which is high temp and a good cushion.

What did you guys do?

Good to know, but somehow the picture(s) got lost.

Here's what mine has. Sort of looks like door gasket material.

Hey Heat Seeker
That is on the side where the air comes out. Mine does not have that.
Is there anything on the bottom side?

This is the only other photo I have of my blower:

Looks like the foam is under the bottom. You can see it near those bolts. see

Mine is the same as Heatseeker's. just the gasket material

Wow, I never noticed it! Next time it's out (spring cleaning) I'll have to look closer.
