4.2 Function
Scope
The Draftbooster is a fan for mounting on top of the chimney. The Draftbooster is designed to
facilitate ignition and refueling. It is designed for wood burning stoves or closed inserts with a
nominal eect of maximum 8 kW. The Draftbooster comes with a exible ange, a 5-meter cord
prepared with plug, and an integrated isolation switch.
Function
The Draftbooster has been developed to solve draught problems by creating a mechanical draught
on chimneys with circular core and a maximum internal diameter of ø220 mm. The Draftbooster is
designed to withstand high temperatures associated with wood burning at a max. temperature of
250 °C and tolerates continuous operation on stoves and closed inserts.
The Draftbooster must always be on during start-up (lighting the re) and during refueling. When
the operating temperature in the replace, ue and chimney has reached a reasonable level and
thus created sucient draft, you may choose to switch o your Draftbooster. If you need extra
draw-out later, due to e.g. a change in weather, you simply turn on the Draftbooster again, leaving
it active as long as necessary.
Start/stop can be accomplished by:
- a wireless outlet (included)
- a regular outlet (possibly with switch.
Bad heating habits may result in problems, such as soot, chimney res, etc., which may damage the
Draftbooster.

WARNING
To avoid chimney res – the chimney must be swept before mounting the Draftbooster!
As the Draftbooster is part of a wood-red installation, please ensure that the design meets the
requirements of fresh air supply. It is always recommend to install a smoke alarm in connection with a
wood-red installation. Regardless of usage pattern, you must turn on your Draftbooster at least once
a month, allowing it to run for 5-10 minutes. Inspect and clean your Draftbooster installation at least
once a year. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for water penetration into the chimney.

NOTE
The supplied steel wire must always be securely fastened both to the Draftbooster and to the chimney.
Wrap the wire around the chimney and through the wire lock.Tighten the wire in a downward direction
and tighten the wire lock. The wire must be tight to secure that the Draftbooster stays on the chimney,
but not so tight that it makes the Draftbooster tilt.

4.5.7 Installing the Draftbooster on a brick chimney
NOTE
The supplied steel wire must always be securely fastened both to the Draftbooster and to the chimney.
Begin by attaching the wire bracket to the chimney, tighten the loop, and clamp down the wire lock. The
wire is tightend in a downward direction - enough to secure that the Draftbooster stays on the chimney,
but not so tight that it makes the Draftbooster tilt.

4.6 Electrical wiring
The Draftbooster must always be connected to an outlet with a protective ground.
• The wireless outlet should be connected to an appropriately located wall outlet close to the oven and
chimney. The plug from the Draftbooster can now be connected and the Draftbooster can be controlled
by the on / o on the remote control. (Check that the Draftbooster can be switched on and o. If not the
distance between the wireless outlet and the remote control must be reduced
• If the wireless outlet is not used the plug from the Draftbooster can be pluged directly to a wall outlet.
Possibly with an on / o switch.
DANGER
If the need arises to replace the original Draftbooster cord, use a cord of the same type. Otherwise, the
insulation can melt or erode, exposing the cord itself.
4.7 Start-up
DANGER
Check the oven to make sure it is working properly, while the Draftbooster is running. Make sure that
no fumes are escaping into the room as this can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.
1. Before lighting the re, turn on the Draftbooster (open the air intake completely on the stove)
2. Place the wood in the stove
3. Make sure that the Draftbooster is turned on, before you attempt lighting the re. Strike a match inside
the stove and keep it there, noting if the smoke from the match is being drawn towards the top of the
stove and out of the chimney*
4. Listen carefully as well. You should be able to hear the blade of the Draftbooster revolving**
5. Light the re and make sure that no smoke is escaping from the stove
6. Close the doors.
- Is smoke escaping from the closed stove?
- Close the air-intake of the stove
- Open the windows in the room where the oven is located to ventilate the room thoroughly
- If necessary, call for qualied assistance in order to remedy the problem
- If defects are detected, these must be repaired before using the Draftbooster and the stove again.
*/** NOTE: If the Draftbooster does not draw the smoke from the match towards the top of the stove, or if you cannot
hear the Draftbooster running, do not light the re. Consult the section troubleshooting (section 4.8.2 on page 38). If
this does not rectify the problem, call for qualied assistance.
CAUTION
Do not over-heat the stove. Small deposits of soot can kindle and start a chimney re, which may cause
dangerously high temperatures in the chimney.
If you have experienced a chimney re, you must ensure that the mechanical and electrical functioning
of the Draftbooster is checked. If defects are found, these must be repaired before further use of the
Draftbooster and the stove.
