just finished replacing the distribution Blower on my Accentra Insert. Bearings were probably going. Becoming noisy and louder.Old one came out and new one went in easier than I imagined.
Also replaced the Door Gasket. Made me realize how easy it was to close the door before.

My Thanks to Scott Williamson for posting in a previous post a link to Amazon for a replacement. I got mine for $101. Exact replacement.
Wasn't going to fire it up tonight as the temps are fairly mild, but I couldn't let all that work go to waste.
Now I realize how noisy that old blower was.

hi camdids,

how did you get to the bottom of your unit? tilt forward, or jack it up?

thanks,
