The ProV Insert has been designed to have full variable speed, including your own choice of blowers. It is guaranteed to have the best value, application, flexibility, and performance. We guarantee you will not be disappointed!
This model comes with the choice of a local blower (1700 CFM or 1200 CFM) or an in-line 1300 CFM. This will allow you to fit this liner into any project.
The main difference between this model and other inserts, besides the blower customization, is the design and the addition of heat lights in the grill. It also comes with 2 or 3 Hallogen lights (depending on the width), dishwasher-safe stainless steel filters, and a push-button panel.
