    are you talking about an electric cowl or a fan for on top of the stove to help circulate hot air into the room?

    This is the one we have running in our showroom.
    It is the "ThermoElectric - Stove Fan". Retails at €99. Prob get cheaper online I'd say.
    Excellent at spreading the heat about. Manufacturers say you burn up to 15% less fuel because you feel the heat better so you're less likely to fully fuel the stove. Hard to know, but I wouldn't really doubt it.

    What do stove manufacturers say about them?

    I only ask because there may be undesired consequences from cooling the flue too much.

    Hi,

    I think this is you`r best bet. wwwdoteco-smartfandotcom They have some summer promotion and you can get it for 149 euros, with free shipping. Was 170, or something like this. I`m happy with it.

    Any update on how people are getting on with the stove fans ? Has anyone bought one and if so any noticeable difference with throwing the heat about ?

    A friend of mine has recently put one on their stove and they swear by it. They have their stove in a long high ceiling room that has three different levels and they say that it spreads the heat into the low section where the stove is.
