Our GFK4A blower kit is a thermostatically controlled gas fireplace fan kit designed to fit several models of Heatilator fireplaces. The "A" in GFK4A stands for "Automatic", which means the kit includes a thermostat sensor that provides hands free operation of the blower. When it senses that the fireplace has heated up, it turns the blower on. After you've shut off the fireplace, the fireplace will cool and the blower will turn off. The kit comes entirely pre-wired and fully assembled for easy installation and is assembled and tested here in Racine, WI USA.
Also featured with our GFK4 kit is a 100% ball bearing blower motor assembly. Both the motor bearings as well as the outside end cap use extremely high quality Japanese sealed roller bearings. The blower produces 130+ CFM of air flow, uses an extremely efficient motor and will drastically improve the heating efficiency of your fireplace. To confirm fitment, please see our compatibility guide below or consult with your owner's manual.
