Does this heater have a blower or is there an optional blower that can be added? How much clearance does this heater need?

It has no blower. I seriously doubt one could be added. As far as clearance for safe operation 6 inches from sides, 1 foot from front 2 foot from top. Ventilate carbonmonoxide fumes from room at least every 5 hours of operation.

No, the heater doesn't have a blower, works on convection, whether you can add a blower, I have no idea. It is zero clearance, hangs on the wall.....hope this was some help.

No blower, do not think this model has a blower option. There are types with blowers yet they are much more expensive. Clearance requirements are stateed in the description, please see the complete description.

No, it does not have a blower and I doubt a blower would help. It simply uses natural convection. It is designed to mount on the wall, and the clearance needed on each side is 8-12 inches. Of course, you would need a large clearance above for the heat to freely rise and not overheat any object.

Does not come with blower. The blower should be listed as add-on recommendations. I'm pretty sure the unit came with a thermostat remote control. I don't believe that was a add-on. The control box is battery operated, which has 3 settings. Off, Remote & On. When control is set on the remote section, your remote control will operate the off & on, then your mode and setting your temp. It will have a instruction booklet as well. The blower has its own separate 3 way switch and mounts on the bottom left of unit. Hope that helps a little. All was purchased through Amazon a few years ago. Works great, very pleased.

This unit does come with an interal blower fan with an ac power cord which is very shot. The blower however is undersized for the btu of the heater so a circulating system is recommended.

It has a blower. It'll take a standard 2 foot log. It puts out a LOT of heat. Its hard to regulate it. You'll have to open some windows. Burns a lot of wood. Gets about 2 to 3 hours full. I'm doing a 1500 sq barn.

no it does not - the blower is an option - and make sure you get the right one for the unit - I just use an ocellating fan in front of it - $2 at Goodwill.

Yes there is a blower on the unit, however, the heat is very little that is generated, if I stand close to the unit I can feel a "bit" it does not produce enough heatto make any difference to the room. I would have enjoyed more generated heat personally, yet very satisfied with the unit, it looks beautiful and gives a very peaceful feeling, flames lookvery real to life.

You don't need a blower. It distributes the heat just fine without additional equipment and you can run it without the heat.

It is a fan forced unit. It will blow out about 8 to 10 feet. This heater is quit a work horse. On high it really heats quick. On low it will maintain. Not sure what the power consumption is yet, as we have only had this heater about one month. Hope this helps.

I think it would be pretty hard to have a completely silent heater, but this one is very good. If you don't have it turn from side to side, it is almost silent. This heater is NOT meant to heat a room, thus no blower. It is meant to heat whatever it is aimed at, LIKE YOU. I bought 4 of them last year, great gifts, and were appreciated.

I put the blower in mine, does not move a lot of air. The blower switch is on the back of the heater, so you can not see it.

It heats up pretty quickly and does a nice job heating a room. The fan is quiet. We like it so much we also bought an electric fireplace insert (another brand). The fan on it is much noisier and it does not heat up as fast. As far as how far the dimplex blower-- I don't know---6-8 feet maybe.

The owners manual which should have come with your heater shows clearances as follows. From the ceiling 36", from either side 8", from the floor 2", from the rear none provided it is mounted with the supplied mounting bracket. Hope this helps!

Good afternoon, you shouldn't need a blower with this unit as it will do a nice job warming up a medium size room. You could use a ceiling fan or an oscillating fan to move the air. I did notice a comment below about warranty service. Mr. Heater has an 800 number for service and my experience with them is good. Should you have any questions, give Next Day MRO a call toll free at 855-770-7195.
