GS Operating Instructions

Important: The information in this manual contains safe operating instructions and 

warranty information. Read this information carefully to learn how to operate and 

maintain your Ecofan

®

GS properly and to avoid injury or product damage. 

Proper Usage

The Ecofan

®

GS is designed for use on freestanding stoves with surface temperatures 

between 150°F to 300°F (65°C to 150°C).  

Do not use

 the Ecofan

®

GS on a wood 

stove with surface temperatures above 300°F (150°C) as this may damage the unit and 

void the warranty.   

Handling the Ecofan

®

GS Safely

The base of the Ecofan

®

GS will get hot when used. Hold the unit firmly by the  handle 

at all times as shown in Figure 1. Do not touch the base of the Ecofan

®

GS. Never 

set the Ecofan

®

GS down on an unprotected surface as the hot base could potentially 

damage that surface. 

Children

Accidents can occur if children are not properly supervised around your stove or 

Ecofan

®

GS. Children should be kept away from the stove and never allowed to handle  

the Ecofan

®

GS. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them. 

Always use caution and supervise children around the stove.

Placement on the Stove Top

To get maximum performance from the Ecofan

®

GS it is important to place it correctly 

on the stove top. There are two main factors to consider when positioning the 

Ecofan

®

GS on a gas stove:

1.  Finding the hottest part of the gas stove surface (up to 300º F/150ºC).

2.  Ensuring that cool air can be drawn from behind the Ecofan

®

GS over the 

top, cooling fins. 

The easiest method to find the hottest part of the stove top when using the 

Ecofan

®

GS for the first time, is to simply place it on various parts on the top and then 

observe how fast the fan spins. It will turn the fastest on the hottest part. This is the 

recommended method for stoves without a grate on the stove top. We have found the 

following positions to work 

best on most gas stoves that 

include a grate on

the stove top:

Figure 2) For stoves that have 

a full grate, position your  

Ecofan

®

GS to the back corner 

making sure that hot air is not 

forced behind fan.

Figure 3) For stoves that have only a grate near the 

front, position your  Ecofan

®

GS  at the back of the 

grate, away from the chimney pipe.

Please Note:

Internal Blower: 

The Ecofan

®

GS efficiency may be affected by running your stove’s 

internal blower system. The Ecofan

®

GS operates from the heat off the stove’s surface. 

In some cases the internal blower will reduce the stove top temperature enough to 

affect the Ecofan

®

GS performance. This may cause the Ecofan

®

GS to slow down 

while the internal blower is on.

Important: 

If the Ecofan

®

GS is placed on a surface hotter than 300ºF (150ºC), the 

built-in overheat protector will activate. This will cause the unit to slow down to 

protect itself. If this happens, simply move the Ecofan

®

GS to a cooler spot on the 

stove top and the overheat protector will reset automatically.
