Circulating fan/blower question

Berryhill · #1 (**permalink**) 07-03-2009, 09:53 PM

I've been searching for a fan or blower and see a lot of furnace "draft inducing blowers" online. If it's a furnace blower, does that mean that it is designed to operate in heat? None of the descriptions that I've seen describe them as "high temperature" blowers.

Hi,
Go to Grainger Industrial Supply and search for blowers,High temperature. Many to choose from.

Yes, I've seen those. My question was whether a draft inducing blower for a furnace is by definition a high temperature blower.

Dave, If you look at the draft inducing blowers at Grainger, some are listed as high temperature. However, they don't specify what temperature range is acceptable. Unless you could get one of these for a cheaper price, why not use one of the true high temperature Dayton type blowers that are rated to 450F.

I'm building a small oven on a budget so I'm trying to avoid spending $100 for a blower on a $250 oven.
