Blower Operation

Figure 1: Air flow with a blower
Wood Stove - Owener's Manual
It is possible, on wood stoves, to install a fan (depending
on your product, it could be included or sold separately).
See the Exploded View and Parts List in the Wood Stove
Installation and Operation Manual for the original part
number.
The blower is installed on the back of the stove to increase
the airflow through the heat exchanger and improve hot air
circulation in the room. When used regularly, the blower can
provide a small increase in efficiency, up to 2%. However,
the use of a blower 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.
Ensure the blower cord is not in contact
with any surface of the stove to prevent
electrical shock or fire damage. Do not run
cord beneath the stove.
