A blower assembly includes a centrifugal fan and a motor assembly. The centrifugal fan has a plurality of axially extending impeller blades, a first axial end, and an air inlet. The air inlet is at the first axial end of the centrifugal fan. The motor assembly comprises a stator, a rotor, and an air directing surface. The air directing surface is shaped and configured to direct air drawn into the air inlet radially outwardly toward the impeller blades. The air directing surface extends generally along the rotor axis from its first end to its second end. At least a surface region of the air directing surface generally circumscribes the rotor axis and diverges radially outwardly as such surface region of the air directing surface extends away from the first end toward the second end. 1. A blower assembly comprising:{'sub': 'f', 'a centrifugal fan rotatable about a fan axis, the centrifugal fan having a plurality of axially extending impeller blades, a first axial end, a second axial end, a first air inlet, a second air inlet, and a drive plate between the first and second axial ends of the centrifugal fan, the second axial end being opposite the first axial end, the first air inlet being at the first axial end of the centrifugal fan, the second air inlet being at the second axial end of the centrifugal fan, the drive plate being between the first and second axial ends of the centrifugal fan, the impeller blades having inner surfaces that combine to define a fan inner diameter d;'}{'sub': 1', '2', '1', '2', '2', 'f, 'a motor assembly comprising a stator, a rotor, at least one electronic component adapted and configured to control the motor assembly, and an air directing surface, the rotor being configured to rotate relative to the stator about a rotor axis, the rotor of the motor assembly being operatively coupled to drive plate of the centrifugal fan in a manner such that the centrifugal fan rotates with the rotor about the rotor axis, said at least one electronic ...
