Solution 3.4 Installation and Operation Manual
Appendix 3: Installation and Use of Air Circulation Fan and
Thermodisc
A fan is 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.
The 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 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. The thermodisc enables the blower to
start or stop automatically when the stove is hot or too cold. The thermodisc part number is
AC02055 for a quick connect model. Installation instructions are supplied with the thermodisc.
