Valiant Remora Magnetic Flue Pipe Heat Powered Stove Fan (FIR350), Black, 200 mm

Product Information

What I did discover is this model is a good choice for longer, more rectangular-shaped rooms because of the two-bladed design. Has anything in the area of the house increased in height: such as a neighbour’s tree, a higher roof pitch, a new loft? Modelled from our bestselling Premium 4, it has magnetic wings that are stable to over 400°c, the Remora is quick to attach to most 4-7” flue pipes with magnetic properties and that reach 200C or higher. As the construction of the fan proved successful only a few minor improvements have been introduced since it was released a few years ago; this includes the shape of the blades – the most visible change. The fan’s base is equipped with three screws which act as feet and six threaded holes so the fan can be levelled if the stove top surface isn’t perfectly horizontal.

The team at Valiant have seen just how popular wood /multi fuel burning stoves are becoming in the UK and Ireland and also realised they are being fitted in all manner of sites and situations – not just a traditional fireplace – and come in all manner of shapes and sizes. The Remora stove fan creates a good air flow without being too noisy and disturbing what you are doing. However, most good stove fans have a built-in overheating protector (in the form of a bi-metal strip) that lifts the stove fan up slightly from the surface of the stove to help reduce the risk of damaging the stove fan. You and your home will feel warmer for longer on the wood that you burn and you save on your electric or gas heating bills. Most modern Peltier fans have a bimetallic strip built in the base that tilts the fan to protect the Peltier module from overheating.There’s as much to like in the Valiant FIR350 Remora Magnetic Flue Pipe Stove Fan as there is in my Best Pick, and more if your stovetop is irregular or a cool top. If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. What we’ve found is our stove, probably due to its size, rarely reaches the red ‘Optimum Burn’ section (see below).

Skipping the very technical aspects, this fan starts to operate at 70 °c, and its operates until 300 °C.As of today – November 2017 – the Sirocco Plus is the only stove fan that can be adapted to work on the built in stove. Welcome to my site, my name is John and I have been lucky enough to work in horticultural nurseries for over 15 years in the UK.

Should there be restricted clearance above the stove, the company offers a smaller version of this fan that is only 190mm high: the SmartFan LT Mini, with just a slightly poorer performance due to the shorter blade diameter.

Four levelling screws type TPFRSD can be installed between the fan and the chimney to create dilution air in brick chimneys if the temperature in. This means they are self-powered devices and therefore don’t require batteries or an electric mains source to function. It has a durable satin black anodised finish and looks just as stylish as its predecessors and will complement any fireside interior design. Installing a chimney fan is a simple procedure offered by your nearest fireplace/stove showrooms or HETAS registered installer.
