I have an older country flame insert that I've slid out today for the pre-winter cleaning. Country Flame Pellet Burner 100 made in 1992.

Was wondering if there was any worthwhile motor upgrade to be done while it's all exposed.
The room blower is a Fasco 7063-8322.
It's always maxed out so wouldn't mind finding something drop in that has more cfms/rpms to allow some useful adjustment .

The exhaust motor is a Fasco 7021-7695. That one being a fixed speed I am more looking to see if there is something just better (more efficient)?

Both work fine although the exhaust gets out of whack and noisy every now and then so I have to tap the stove but that's not a huge deal.


Love how dead simple this stove is so want to keep it going as long as possible.
