Abstract

A blower assembly includes a first tubular duct in pneumatic communication with a second tubular duct arranged in a generally oblique orientation relative to one another. A thermostatic switch effects actuation of a plurality of blower fans mounted at an entrance opening at a lower distal end of the first tubular duct to direct heat through the first and second tubular ducts. V-shaped spring plates mounted within side walls of the first tubular duct receive the respective first and second legs of a base assembly mounting the logs to be heated. An optional moisturizing and deodorizing dispenser assembly is mounted to the second tubular duct structure for dispersion throughout a room environment.
