Stove fans..... Worth it?

[Big J]

Interesting aside, but the convection pipes on our Bullerjan stove seem to act in the same way, distributing the heat far better than our old stove did. Don't know why all stoves don't have them!

Just trying to send the heat out the door really! Seen ones on E bay for around £50, is it worth spending the extra and getting a better one?

What a cool looking stove.

Big thumbs up from me.

 

I have a double ended stove linking my living room and dinning room with one fan at each end blowing the hot air accumulating above into each room.

 

Wouldn't be without them and bought them from eBay at £90 each.

Stove fan, yes! I have 1, think its brilliant and we'll worth the money. Got it "on offer" at £70 as a special promotion (normally retail £99) Like most things, buy cheap = buy twice! There is a marked improvement in circulated heat.

Whatever you eventually decide on, go for fuel efficiency over initial cost. As during its lifetime, it's the fuel which may be the most expensive part of ownership. Currently, the most efficient wood/multi fuel stoves produce useable heat from around 90% of the fuel. Some of the cheap stoves, (£260) only convert around 35% of the fuel to useable heat.

Definitely worth the money. It gives a much more even heat distribution around the room and helps it go out the door and up the stairs. The only place ours doesn't work is on the boiler stove because the heat goes more into the water jacket around the stove and so the top of the stove doesn't get hot enough to work the fan.
