hi all,
as is typical for me i try to find a cheap source for the parts i need. the original fan on the longer narrow whisper heaters was made by Japan Servo. Japan Servo was bought by Nidec. Nidec now only serves large volume wholesalers and OEM's.
that particular fan was interesting because it is spec'd at operating at 31db. the one you can buy from an aquahot parts supplier is a different version that is i think 34-35db. they get like 20 bucks each for them.
the wholesaler i talked to said only available in large quantities. i thought maybe group buy would be in order.....but i dont think we can consume 1000 of them.....ha
i have found a few others that i might try. i want to replace all 6 fans and the 3 fans on the larger whisper heater as well. just cause i can....
i will post what i find out
