Well it was April, then June and first week in September. Still nothing, maybe next season, got to get my Hyfire up and running with a new booster fan.

I have some test pieces of sheet metal for you (free of charge if you agree to help evaluate their fitness for prime time). PM me with an address And I'll send them with a part number and source for the fans.

Thanks for your patience and continued contribution to the forum. :oops:

At long last actual photos of the fan kit parts and oe fan installed. This kit will be available through your dealer (after you tell them about it! LOL)all you have to provide are the fans (Dayton 1TDR9, 4C264, 4C448 or Fasco B45267, AO Smith #563, run on high speed for those units that are 2 speed). Retail price will be around $75 to $85, not exactly sure yet. We have a pair sent to ewcsretired for product evaluation. Let us know if you would like to participate in that.

The units are mountable on either side before you glue on the small piece of hopper gasket, but that can be changed to the other side if need be. Tools needed are a 7/16" wrench and a 1/4" drive ratchet with extension and deep wall six point 7/16" socket. These will not fit the older Hyfires with the 160 CFM fans but we are working on that as well. ;)

There is a slide on each side for tuning and release of air along the side of the stove. We are also working on an adapter for the hot air jacket so that the sides of the stove will be washed of heat under fan pressure.

There is a slide to allow blowing air up the side of the stove or into the hot air jacket opening

There is a small piece of hopper gasket that acts as a spacer because the cut out in the wrap holds up the adapter flange from mating
