So, you have a wood burner, log burner or multi-fuel stove. It looks fantastic and everyone thinks it’s great… but friends and family alike fight to sit the closest - a little too far away and it’s just not warm enough!
That’s where the stove fan comes in. A Valiant Heat Powered Stove Fan is an essential tool for ensuring maximum heat is circulated around the room from your Stove or Aga.
When a Valiant Stove Fan is placed on a working wood burning stove, heat is conducted from the surface of the stove, travelling up from the aluminium base of the fan, to the underside of the Peltier device. The Peltier device generates electricity by having one side hot and the other side cooler (known as a ‘thermal difference’). This temperature difference creates a ‘potential difference’ (a voltage) in the circuit. This voltage powers the motor, which in turn drives the fan. Some models of Stove Fan can operate from temperatures as low as 50°C.
Due to the fact that hot air rises; most of the heat from your stove simply escapes directly above and is lost. That means you aren’t actually feeling the full benefit.
By placing a Valiant Fan on your stove, heat from and around your stove is pushed outwards around the room. With the additional power of convection, you are no longer relying just on the radiated heat – you’ll benefit from a warmer living area, fewer hot spots and potentially lower fuel bills.
A Stove Fan does two things; firstly it keeps itself at the optimum operating temperature, and secondly it drives the warm air into the room, creating improved airflow.
Valiant Heat Powered Fans are not designed to blast air in the same way a cooling fan would, but instead generates a gentle airflow around the room. You will not feel gusts of air coming from the fan, but instead you’ll notice a more comfortable, even temperature throughout your living space.
So, although at first it might seem like magic, Heat Powered Stove Fans actually work based on the simple principle that if two dissimilar metals are placed together and heated, they will create a small voltage that can be enough to power a motor.
It’s for this reason that the Stove Fan needs no power except the stove itself - No switches, no trailing wires, and no batteries. The fan generates its own electricity to power the little electric motor in the fan (Peltier), circulating the warm air efficiently.
Valiant products are designed, engineered, tested and fully compliant with UK environmental and consumer standards. We take great pride in our quality and service.
Our Heat Powered Stove Fans circulate the warm air created by your stove, into the room. Sitting on top of the stove, our fans gently and silently moves warm air further into your living space, resulting in less heat rising and escaping through your chimney. Which means you say toasty and use less fuel.
