Energy-Saving Caframo Wood Stove Ecofans that Circulate Heat

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

The expense may deter most, but it is well worth the money for how it moves the heat from your stove into the room. It is super quiet.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

Works just like its supposed to. Keeps the whole two story house warm. Had no idea that this small fan would work so well & it's so quiet I have to look to make sure it's running.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

It worked well the first year. This year I was having trouble with it. It wouldn't spin. I found out the stove wasn't hot enough. When the stove got real hot it was spinning like crazy. I love that it's totally quiet and takes no electricity.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

we've used this fan for years and love it. it circulates the heat really well and the blades spin fast and smooth. the only gripe i have is that it's a little difficult to clean the dust off of, but canned air does the trick. it's an amazing little thing and i wouldn't hesitate to buy another.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

I wish I would have gotten the more powerful one. it is so quiet, you can't even hear it.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

I own an insert, and try as I might to make sure the temperature stayed below 650 degrees the unit still seems to work less well with each use. Hope that they would design the unit to be able to handle insert conditions, that is, allow the fan to be placed somewhere besides at the back a stove. With an insert, one simply cannot do that.

We have had two of these fans sitting on top our wood stove for thirteen years, running 7 months out of the year, and they still keep whirring. Great high quality product.

At our suggestion, many of our friends now own these.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

We got the large fan and was pleasantly surprised at how well this fan works at dispersing the heat into the room. Amazingly you can't feel the air movement and yet it has consistently brought the temperature up by 5 degrees. We are extremely pleased with the fan. Well worth the money spent, we were concerned it was not worth the price. Oh, yes it is!

I use the small Ecofan on my woodstove and wall heater at home. This fantastic invention is perfect for heat circulation especially during winter power outages! I save money on electricity because it doesn't need any!

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

Have used this entire cold winter and heard the oil heat clicking on less often as fan better disseminates wood stove air throughout our great room. Place it and forget it. No need to set or adjust anything after initial optimization trial.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

Works well, moves alot of warm air.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

As a secondary fan on our wood stove this fan fit the bill. It is light weight and easy to position. Great for when the electricity is off and you still get air circulation.
A little costly, but well worth it in the end.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

Purchased the fan for my son. His principle source of heat is his wood stove. He reports that this product extends the warmth much further and operates quietly.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

I wish it had moved more air around and then it just stopped working...I returned it[...]

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

works like a charm placed on top of wood burning stove & really moves the warm air out into the rest of the house. Purchased as a gift for my husband & he was pleasantly pleased with its performance.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

The room could get so hot at times I'd ask my Husband to open the front door!!. This little fan works like magic and IS magic!!

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

We have now purchased 2 of the Ecofans, so we obviously think they are great little workhorses. Pushes heat to corners of room.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

I gave this as a gift for my parents to use on their new soapstone wood stove. It doesn't move a whole lot of air, but does help some to distribute the heat from the stove. The main advantage is that it requires no power. It lets you know when the stove is up to optimal temperature for the catalytic converter by the speed the fan is going.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

[...]quality is tops and we use this for top of our wood stove. i would get the large one like we did

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

Using it as advertised helps me heat my 2 story house with a small gas stove!

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

I would probably buy the largert one if I had the chance to re-do the purchase, but I like the produce

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

I had high hopes for this fan. We have two woodstoves and use two box fans to move air around. I bought the large fan for my husband on Christmas hoping to eliminate one of the box fans. The airflow from this fan was hardly noticeable and didn't help move the air around the room at all. The size of the room is about 15' x 25'. Maybe the fan would make a difference in a small room.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

This fan helps to warm the whole house faster (1800 sq. ft). It is one of the best purchases I have ever made!

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

I purchased the fan in hopes that it could move hot air from the Buck stove into the room should the utility power go out (as it has in the past). It can barely move the smoke of an extinguished match.

Very cute and fun to watch. The physics are way cool. But for an "off the grid" item...no way.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

Works great on a small wood burning stove. Circulates well and speed lets you know when its time to add wood. No electric or batteries is a great plus so no added expenses. A real conversation piece.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

performs as advertised

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

We couldn't be more pleased with this fan! Tho it is not as powerful as the electric blower we have, it still circulates the hot air out into the room with NO noise and no elctricity! It does a great job!

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

We love this little fan so much. It just works beautifully for the purpose that it was intended.

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

I have a woodstove in a fireplace insert-I was losing so much heat up the chimney until this year when I bought this fan--it circulates heat like no other and it is finally warm in my cold Maine home! Thank you thank you thank you!

Comments about Plowhearth Ecofan:

Our wood stove is in a large room so it's harder to actually feel the direct effect of the fan, but it is a great indicator to let us know whether or not the fire is well stoked and burning hot! On a less practical level, the science that causes the fan to work is a great conversation piece and "brain warmer" for elementary school aged children.
