Stove Fan Replacement Kit-Replacement Motor and Replacement TEC for Wood Stove Fan

Product Information

The stove fan automatically starts turning when hot air is produced by the stove. Instead of allowing the stove’s heat to rise and get caught by the ceiling, the blades push the heat out into the room.

Let’s face it, wood-burning stove fans are quite small and and when they’re in operation they don’t pump out a great deal of force. This stove fan is estimated to be up to 80% more efficient at distributing heat than other single fan models. This should be no surprise as the dual fans are highly effective and can spin at fast speeds of 1970 revolutions per minute. It also offers a maximum airflow of 640 feet per minute. Stovepipe fans are the best option when you don’t have a lot of space on your stovetop or have a ‘canopy’ stovetop that isn’t flat. If you don’t have a flat surface on top of your stove, you won’t be able to use a standing wood stove fan so a stovepipe fan is a good option. Stovepipe fans are also an excellent auxiliary option if you already have a stovetop fan but want to fit another fan on as well. A stovepipe fan wraps around the flue pipe itself. It does not have a stand. Second, if you have a very large room, consider buying a bigger fan to ensure it’s capable of circulating enough air around your room. Some – but not all – fans list airflow in cubic feet per minute (CFM), so in this case look for fans with a higher CFM figure. Where do I place the stove fan?

My Top Recommended Wood Burning Stove Fans

A CFM rating is a good indication of how much warm air the fan can circulate, although not all stovetop fans will state this. Generally speaking, 130 – 180 CFM is sufficient for most standard, domestic rooms. When in use, there is a noticeable difference felt in the room temperature, stopping heat from getting trapped by the stove. Undoubtedly, stove fans efficiently and effectively distribute the heat that your stove produces throughout your living space. You and your home will feel warmer for longer on the wood that you burn and you save on your electric or gas heating bills. All of the stove fans I review will do the job; it’s more a matter of which one fits in with your stove and living arrangements. It’s easy to set up – all you need to do is place this stove fan on the smooth, flat surface of your stove top. It measures 19 cm tall and has a reasonably compact base of approximately 10 x 7 cm, making it suitable for the majority of stoves.

The Valiant FIR350 Remora Magnetic Flue Pipe Heat Powered Stove Fan which attaches to the flue pipe also needs to have access to cool air. Don’t place this at the bottom of the pipe near the stovetop, but move it a little way up the pipe. You may need to experiment with the distance as the fan still needs to be near the hot spots of the pipe. How do stove fan work? As you’ll remember from above, this wood burning stove fan does not come without potential cons. It may have a shorter working lifespan, and it might not push as much hot air as other models. This wood-burning stove fan could also become noisier over time, but these potential cons don’t sway our decision to name it our number one. We still think it makes an outstanding selection overall. The CRSURE 2021 4-Blade heat powered stove fan is another solid choice if you want to optimise your wood-burning stoves. It effectively helps facilitate maximum airflow and excellent heat distribution in smaller rooms.Look for a heat powered stove fan with 3 or 4 blades . These are best suited to small and medium domestic rooms. Alternatively, a dual fan, or multiple small fans, may be the best option for larger spaces – these provide the power of a larger model but within a compact size. A fan with a base of around 15 cm will fit on most stoves, distributing warmth without getting too close to the flue pipe.
