Your energy. Optimized.
Startup and conguration
System testing
Before any adjustments are made to the system, please follow these procedures:
Turn the chimney fan ON and make sure that it is turning. Increase and decrease the speed of the fan by
adjusting the speed control to make sure the fan is operating properly.
DANGER! Check that the heating appliance (water heater, furnace, etc.) is
working properly after the chimney fan has been switched on. Make sure that
no ue gases are spilling out as this can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning!
After system testing, Exodraft recommends igniting your replace or stove. Follow the guide below for
correct lighting and use of the chimney fan.
Operating replace or stove
Lighting: Place a few logs in the re grate or on the bottom of the replace/stove.
100%
Before lighting the re, turn on the fan at full speed and open the air intake completely on your stove/
replace. Note! If your Exodraft control has a boost function, please activate this.
Light the re and make sure there is no spillage of ue gases from the replace opening.
When the re has caught on, reduce the speed of the chimney fan to a point where it still removes the
ue gases safely but without quenching the ames. Remember this setting on the fan speed control,
as this will be the ideal operating position/speed of the chimney fan. If you are using one of the controls
with a temperature sensor, the control will remember the setting last used.
Refueling: In order to avoid soot and smoke in the room when adding wood to the re, it may be
necessary to increase the fan speed for a short period of time (3 min.) during the refueling. For controls
with a boost function, please choose this option.
If you follow these instructions it will help conserve energy and at the same time assure a maximum
heating output from the heating appliance.
If you want to let the re die out completely, you must leave the fan on until the heat in the ue has
gone down and it is safe to turn the fan off. Controls with a temperature sensor will ensure that the fan
is turned off automatically after a post purge period.
CAUTION! Do not overre the replace/stove. Small deposits of
creosote could be ignited and start a small chimney re which could
cause the chimney ue to reach a dangerously high temperature.
