Finally... an
economical draft inducer for solid fuels.
AD-1 Auto-Draft
Draft Inducer for your wood, coal, corn burning stove and furnaces. So your
house won't smell like smoke....
Draft inducers are
electrically operated devices which increase the air flow up a
chimney.
This action increases the negative pressure (draft) in the
stove, preventing smoke from leaking out of pipe, seams or
doors.
Solve smoking problems from appliances with exposed interior
single wall flue pipe
A simple solution
to a sometimes complicated problem.....
The AD-1 draft inducer causes no
additional pipe restriction and can be "used as needed".
No more smoke....Turn it on to load wood or during a draft issue, and
shut if off.
Unlike top mounted units and chimney fans which must remain on
during any burn... the AD-1, even with a power outage, allows use of
your heating stove.
Eliminates Smoke when
loading.
Overcomes flow reversal in non-self-starting chimneys.
Establishes fires quickly.
Encourages complete utilization of fuel, leaving a fine ash.
Specially designed heat resistant, radial type blower.
Easily installed.
Variable speed control.
Fits 5, 6, 7 and 8" diameter stovepipe.
Operates on standard 110 VAC.
Draws .8 amps (maximum).
Dimensions: 11 5/8" x 8 1/2" x 7 1/2".
Weight: 9 1/2 lbs
Great DIY project. Easily
installs by cutting a rectangular 8 5/8” x 3 1/8” hole in the single
wall flue pipe from the stove.
Vertical mounting, you need at
least 12 to 24” clearance above the stove. A closer mounting may be
possible with some form of heat shield to deflect rising heat from
“cooking” the fan controls. The AD-1 has a heat-treated housing
that allows it to withstand pipe temperatures up to 700 degrees and even
though the unit gets HOT from the high pipe temps the ambient room air
around the controls should not exceed 104 degrees.
On a horizontal pipe
installation the fan must be in attached to the underside of the pipe
and concern be placed on its distance from a combustible wall surface.
This installation may also keep the unit cooler as it will be further
from the heat source.
The fan is only pre wired to the
speed control…. There is no “plug-in” cord off the control box, but the
unit only draws .8 amps, so a wired plug can be attached to use a close
wall outlet. A conduit pipe should be part of the electrical
installation, mostly to protect the cord from melting or accidentally
draping on the hot flue pipes.
After installation, a turn on
the variable speed switch allows smoke free loading and tending of your
wood stove.
Maximum
Energy Efficiency ---- Fast Starting Fires Without Smoke
With Auto-Draft draft inducers your hard starting stove draws
immediately. No smoky back up even with moist hard to ignite
types of wood. Once the fire is burning, adjust the variable
speed control knob on electrical box for maximum efficiency of
your stove. Auto-Draft draft inducers provides for total utilization of your
wood, leaving only a fine ash residue in most cases.
Fits Most Wood Or Coal Burning
Stoves
Auto-Draft draft inducers can be installed on any wood or
coal burning stove pipe from 5" to 8" in diameter. Designed to
solve draft problems without increasing height or diameter of
the chimney.
