Abstract
A blower housing having a casing with a resilient bottom piece and a rigid top piece assembling with the bottom piece to define an interior of the casing is provided. The bottom piece of the blower housing directly abuts a blower mounting surface. The top piece supports a blower motor. The bottom piece is constructed from a vibration dampening material. The top piece is constructed from a rigid material. The vibration absorbing material attenuates noise and other vibrations transmitted from the blower motor and impeller of the blower housing to the blower mounting surface and other associated structures.
