Installation and Operation Manual for Escape 1800
Appendix 4: Use and Installation of the Optional blower and
Thermodisc
An optional circulation fan may be installed on the back of the stove (DB03102, DB03111,
DB03112 and DB03113 models. Included on the DB03101 model) to increase the flow of
air past heat exchange surfaces and to help circulate warm air in the room. When used
regularly, the fan can provide a small increase in efficiency, up to 2 percent. However, the
use of a fan should not be used as a way to gain more output from a stove that is
undersized for the space it is intended to heat.
When using the fan, allow the stove to reach operating temperature (approximately one
hour), before turning it on. The increased airflow from the fan cools the firebox and could
affect the start-up combustion efficiency if the fan is turned on too early. You can also
install an optional thermodisc kit to enable the blower to start or stop automatically when
the stove is hot or too cold. The thermodisc part number is AC05530 for a basic model and
ACO2055 for a quick connect model. Installation instructions are supplied with the blower
and the thermodisc.
