I replaced an old open flame ceramic gas type unit with the Kozy World KWN191 18,000-BTU Vent-Free Natural-Gas Infrared Wall Heater. The heater is located in a two car garage. I expected a marked improvement in air flow by using the fan. Unfortunately, the fan doesn't have much power and is hardly noticeable in pushing warm air from the unit. I thought also that it might help circulate oxygen to the Cozy unit and thus keep the O2 sensor from shutting the unit down... again not much discernable difference. Since the O2 sensor cuts off the Kozy heater if you turn it up to the higher BTU levels the thermostat control that should turn the fan on and off as needed never comes into play. Not worth the $35+ paid for and for no more than what it is, should have came with the unit already mounted. The mounting was easy but again for the cost--should have came mounted right out of the box. I would have been better off to bought (4) box fans from Wal-Mart @ $10 each to move the warm air and to circulate fresh air to the unit. Shipping from BIC Superstore was fast but the charge was high to TN.

I installed the fan on my heater. The only way I know it's on is I can hear it. Does not seem to move any air or heat around the area.Best Deals on Kozy World 20-6027 Wall Heater Blower
This blower was relatively easy to install but to me, the small amount of air it moves is not worth the noise. It's laud.Honest reviews on Kozy World 20-6027 Wall Heater Blower
It helps spread the heat around, but not very well. The thermal sensor seems quite slow to respond to the heater also. It takes several minutes after the heater ignites to the fan turning on and the same when the heater turns off. All in all, my ceiling fan does a better job of spreading the heat out than this fan does. If you need a fan for your heater get a cheap box fan.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Kozy World 20-6027 Wall Heater Blower
I agree with the other reviews that the fan is not powerful. But I do notice a difference when running the fan vs not running it. The heat seems to get to the other side of the room quicker, even if I don't feel a lot of air being blown out of the heater. The fan has its own thermostat, so it waits for the heater to get hot before turning on, then it remains on after the heater turns off, until the heater cabinet has cooled down.It has a 3 position switch Off, Manual (always on) and Automatic (thermostat control).
Installation is simple. Just remove the 4 screws in the metal plate on the back of the heater, discard the plate, shove the blower in, then secure with the same 4 screws. No wires to hook up. The blower has an AC cord already installed. The blower works completely independently from the heater. If your power goes out, you can still use the heater without the blower.
I'd rate it 5 stars if the blower was more powerful.
