If it makes a kind of grinding noise then the internal brushes for the motor are going bad, if it rattles and vibrates a lot then the fan blades have been knocked out of balance.

I can't find an owner's manual anywhere for this fireplace, but you are welcome to see if any of these universal fan kits look similar: Universal Fireplace Fan Kits.
The higher flame on those 2 burners may be by rusted out. Of course this depends on how old the heater is and how well it has been annually maintained. Unfortunately, DESA International is no longer in business, but some parts are still available. You just have to search the internet for them.
Sounds like your blower motor bearing is going bad. Pull glovebox and you can access blower motor. Pull blower motor and check that fan/cage is tight and not clogged with leaves etc... Had an instance when mine made a bunch of noise found parking stub had been sucked into fan,
this happens yearly..usually it is the thermos couple needs cleaning..this year the pilot orfice itself was dirty and throwing a weak orange flame that was not even touching the thermo couple..I just gave the orfice a good cleaning and now the flame reached out as a long BLUE flame touching the thermo couple and it stayed lit on the first try
A can of air, vacuum and a long thin brush. Blow out any debris in burners and at the pilot assembly while running the vac. Brush all parts you can get too. Unscrew the pilot line from gas valve and blow in tube with can of air. Fire up heater and check for CO.
I have a Rinnai Ventless heater hooked up to a 20 lb propane cly with a Moble home type regulator in line, and when I light it the pilot light lights and stays on. When I turn it to the heat position the pilot light go's out and that it!
If you burn candles it will cause this problem.Also you need to clean the dust out of burner and pilot burner. ACE HARDWARD WHEELERSBURG, OHIO T CHAPMAN
the toyostove is basically a glorified monitor heater. its components are a combustion blower, an air circulator fan, a flame pot, a flat wick or burner mat, a solenoid pump, an ignition element, double walled intake, exhaust pipe. the combustion blower is a glorified vacuum cleaner motor. it sucks in cool air and channels it to the combustion chamber along the sides (round cylinder) kero enters on the burner mat where it ignites. the solenoid pump keeps adding kero until the flame detector spots or heats up. air flow to the pot is regulated by a damper in the combustion air blower line. if the "O" ring in the damper is missing or hardened it will not regulate the air flow which is necessary for combustion. replace this "O" ring should take care of your problem.
same thing happening here.
