I have a Samsung SMV-260UA motor-blower that I am using for my
heatolator style fireplace. The original motor-blower died several
years ago, and the manufacturer is out of business as far as I can
tell. Googling on the original motor-blower assembly part number
brought the no-replacement available information. I scrounged the
Samsung blower unit from a floor-standing computer several years ago
and put it into service a couple of years ago. So it was old. The
Samsung unit has a 2-speed motor and two centrifugal blower wheels,
one on each side of the motor. Googling on the SMV-260UA brought
nothing.

Last winter, one of the two blower wheels cracked and then broke up
and I need a replacement. The blower wheel is 3" diameter, could be
replaced with one up to 3 1/4". the blower wheel is 3 1/2 " long, and
has a 5/16" shaft. I have tried every motor-blower company that I can
find and none sell the blower wheels retail. The one place I did find
refused to talk to me unless I order 100 wheels. A complete new motor-
blower assembly is at least $165 from a local fireplace store, if I
can go thru their catalog and find something that will fit the
available space..

So, any suggestions/ideas gratefully accepted from all you good people.
