B & Q Electric Fire - Noisy

Hi

Have just purchased a new stainless steel electric fire from B&Q (the type that fits into a fireplace or can be freestanding) once I finished assembling it and plugged it in I was amazed to hear a loud whiring noise coming from the fan which pushes the heat out!, stupidly I didnt expect it to make any noise but thinking about it I suppose there was always going to be with a fan heater.

The reason for this post is just a warning for anyone thinking of buying one to get used to putting up with the noise, im starting to wish I had never bought it :(
