The Exhausto Fan will solve most draft problems, usually at a lower cost than construction. The Exhausto Fan mounts outside, atop the chimney, where it literally sucks the smoke from the flue. Its motor is completely enclosed and maintenance free with air-cooled, pre lubricated, sealed ball bearings. It comes with a prewired junction box, a fan speed control, and a bird screen. It is designed for minimum energy consumption, using about as much energy as a regular light bulb. The Exhausto Fan is made of cast-aluminum and stainless steel. It comes with a two-year factory warranty against defects in material and workmanship, a 10-year warranty against corrosion, and a six-month money back guarantee. Note: Before installing, check local codes and have the 110V wiring installed by a certified electrician.
Step 1: To find which Exhausto Fan to order, first find the type of the appropriate size flue from this chart. Measure the inside dimension of the flue

Step 2: Figure the fireplace opening size in square inches (Multiply the width x the height.) In the chart below go to the far left column and find the flue type (This is from Step 1: A-F). Then follow the line across to the appropriate Exhausto Fan model. For see-through fireplaces calculate the area of each side. Then add 100% of the largest side and 50% of the other side. Use this combined area to figure the fan size below.
Note: For round metal chimneys you will need an adaptor.
