Engine Room Blower

[Liselle]

I need to replace the Detmar 3 inch tunnel blower in the engine bay, the only suppliers I can trace at the moment are in the states. Does anyone know of a UK supplier.
Its not an expensive item, around 20 dollars but 3 times that to ship it here.

Hi Liselle

Try this link, although no the design yuou are after I have one of these installed and it's worked fine for years with no issues, may need a little fetteling to fit but being that the thing is so simple it should still look and work fine....

I sold a 3" blower on ebay recently. Have a look, there seems to be a few on there: blower

Can you leave this model (Attwood) running continuously or is it a 10 minute-and-then-off type?

 

[neale]

I very much doubt this model is designed for continuous cycle duty. You'll need something a bit more expensive if you want to leave it running.

Something like this: Blower

Although they don't seem to do a continuous one in a 3" version.

Jabsco do a range for the very task. I fitted one and very quiet with no problems.

Thanks for the suggestions the "chanel advisor" one appears to be the closet match to the detmar, although the capacity appears a little down, as the detmar is rated at 170cfm.
