Use
Difficulties when lighting are usually due to an insufficient draught. Draftbooster provides a draught in the chimney from the outset, making it easier to light the fire.
The draught in the chimney is created by the difference between the high temperature of the smoke and the lower temperature outside. Since the chimney is still cold when lighting the fire, the draught isnt always adequate, and getting a fire going in the stove or fireplace can be difficult without releasing foul smelling smoke and fumes into the living room.
It is always important, however, that the fuel be dry, and that you start with small pieces of wood and kindling. That way the fire can take hold faster and develop the heat required to create a good draught inThe Draftbooster chimney fan can handle a constant smoke temperature of up to 250°C. The Draftbooster chimney fan has been used successfully on twin wall chimney systems as short as 2.5 metres with stoves burning wood.

Customer Review For Draftbooster Supplied By Us (Image 4)
Hi Paul
I wanted to give you feedback on the Draughtbooster fan you supplied last month. Firstly excellent service thank you.
So we have been using it for more than a couple of weeks now with our wood burner and it is ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT. It addresses the issues we were experiencing around insufficient draw from the flue (being a minimal length of approx 4.6 meters because of the single story installation configuration) along with providing numerous other benefits.
We now have " CONTROL" over the burning process and most importantly NO SMOKE OR COMBUSTION FUMES entering the room. "This is what we were unable to tolerate". (As mentioned, I'd fitted the Flue Cube product a year ago in the hope that would increase the draw sufficiently to enable reloading the fire without smoke fumes entering the room but unfortunately it didn't increase the draw sufficiently.)
Below are the positives we are now experiencing from using Draughtbooster:
Easier and quicker lighting.
Clears any cold airlock that can be present in the flue prior to lighting.
Requires less kindling.
Heats up faster.
Tolerates more variation in wood quality and moisture content.
More efficient burn.
Cleaner burn...prolonging a cleaner flue.
A more responsive fire.
No smoke or combustion smell in the room when lighting and reloading.
Quick to establish required fire condition after re loading.
Wider window tolerance of low fire condition from which you can reload.
Fan only needs to be running for the lighting and reloading phases as it doesn't impede the natural draw of the flue.
Wood burner can now be operated by those with less experience.
No more anxiety prior to and when using the wood burner, it is now a pleasure to use.
We hope our experience is of interest and will help you when discussing with potential customers.
We are absolutely delighted Paul..............safe to say we no longer have thoughts around removing our Wood burner installation!.
Thank you and sincerely
