2200 Installation and Operation Manual
APPENDIX 3: INSTALLATION AND USE OF OPTIONAL AIR
CIRCULATION FAN
An optional fan can be installed on the back of
the stove 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. You can purchase this option
through your Osburn dealer. Make sure to
specify this part number: # OA10510
Your fan has a rheostat, see the illustration on
the right to identify the different adjustment
positions; either from high (HI) to low (LO) or
closed (OFF).
When using the optional 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.
CAUTION: ENSURE THAT THE FAN'S POWER
CORD IS NOT IN CONTACT WITH ANY SURFACE
OF THE STOVE TO PREVENT ELECTRICAL SHOCK
OR FIRE DAMAGE. DO NOT RUN THE POWER
CORD BENEATH THE STOVE.
