Best Wood Stove Fans

There are a few things that convinced us to put the model from GALAFIRE on our list. Some of them have more to do with the model's design while others are more about its performance and certain construction elements. Speaking of the former, we would like to mention the fan's compact frame. The fact that it is just a smidge above 7 inches tall means that you'll easily be able to find a proper place for it on the wood stove top. As for the performance, the model is capable of operating under a wide range of temperatures, starting at 122°F and all the way up to 662°F. And when it actually comes to circulating air, the fan won't let you down either given that it can generate up to 220 CFM, with 4 blades ensuring exceptional airflow and its distribution.

Not dissimilar to the majority of these little machines, the model is heat-operated, so you will be able to save up on electricity. It comes equipped with a magnetic stove thermometer that controls the speed of the fan. Finally, this heat-driven wood stove fan is also one of the safer options thanks to the in-built protection system that prevents it from overheating. Add to that the fact that it produces less than 25dB of noise and you have yourself a practical and highly useful tool.

In short, the GALAFIRE N429 circulates warm air throughout the room just as well as the next stove fan. But what sets it apart from those fans are just how safe and silent it is. That and its compact design are the reasons that so many people put their trust in this product.

The CWLAKON Stove Fan is pretty basic. We're not saying that we've any issues with that though. These fans are not supposed to stand out. The fan looks elegant and streamlined enough to seamlessly blend with most fireplaces.

At the same time, made from anodized aluminum, the fan will have no issues resisting high temperatures up to 662°F (350°C). You won't have to worry about deformation and discoloration, even after using this thing for a long time, constantly working under high-temperature conditions.

As it is always the case with these fans, the model's thermoelectric module generates power for the motor. You don't need batteries. You don't need electricity. Improving air circulation from the stove, the fan promotes greater comfort and reduced wood consumption.

The fan's able to work with temperatures ranging from 122°F to 662°F, so you won't have to worry about burning its components or anything like that.

The updated reinforced blades distribute more air more evenly. That said, the blades also generate more noise too.

In closing, the CWLAKON Stove Fan is effective, efficient, and convenient. You can use the chunky handle for easy transport/mobility. The magnetic stove thermometer built into the fan will let you quickly check the temperature inside the stove.

The people behind this fan from Voda advertise it as innovative and durable. And we don't really know about the former since, as far as we can tell, it is about as innovative as the next stove fan. But we can concur with the durable part. Both the fan base and the model's 4 blades are made of anodized aluminum, a material that is known to be particularly resilient against rust and corrosion.

All you need to do is position this tool on a smooth flat surface of the wood stove top. Try to put it near the side or back of the stovepipe. When the surface of the stoves gets hot, the fan will start working on its own, without requiring any assistance on your side. The hotter the stove gets, the faster your fan starts to turn, leading to a better airflow and more warm air circulating in the room.

By the way, the latter is what the model does best. As the fan is capable of delivering up to 240 CFM of airflow, it will be able to move much more air in a minute compared to even the most expensive wood stove fans out there. But just like most of these fans, the model in question is heat-powered, so you won't have to waste your money on extra electricity or batteries. The only real issue we have with it is the fact that the tool only starts to work when the surface reaches about 200ºF, which is a different number from the one that's advertised.

But, other than that, the wood burning stove fan from Voda is about as innovative as these fans get and far more durable than one might expect. It is an affordable solution that will allow you to heat up the living room. And it comes in 3 colors, so you'll be able to match your décor.

There isn't a whole lot we can say on the subject of the Tomersun VDSF613S wood stove fan that we haven't already said about other models in this review. Just like most of them, the fan in question uses the heat of the stove surface as fuel. Since no batteries or electricity is required, a tool like that isn't just an effective solution when it comes to air distribution but also a rather cost-effective option that will allow you to save some money instead of wasting it on batteries or on an increased electricity bill.

And, again, just like most of these fans, the model automatically adjusts its speed in accordance with the temperature of the stove surface. It starts to work when its temperature reaches 185ºF and it is capable of doing so until it reaches the temperatures in the ~650ºF range. But you won't have to worry about that since this wood stove fan comes equipped with a bi-metallic safety device implemented in the base of the fan. If it ever so happens that the temperature of the surface will reach the aforementioned number or even rise well above that, the said safety device will gently elevate the front of the fan to protect the TEG and motor.

Aside from that, we would be remiss not to mention the model's compact 6.7" x 3.6" x 8.7" of overall dimensions that will allow you to easily find some space for it on top of the stove. So, should you get this fan? Well, the short answer is yes. Despite the compact design, the model does not trail behind some of the bulkier fans in terms of performance, so it will be able to cover a pretty sizable room and make it a much warmer environment without requiring much of an investment on your part.

The PYBBO 5-Blade Fireplace Fan is all about that '5-blade' part that's in its name. Featuring 1 more blade, the model moves more air volume at a time, making its operation more efficient. Apart from being efficient, its operation is also pretty much silent, spreading the heat across and around the room and increasing the room's temperature with very little noise.

Assessing construction, the integrated bimetallic strip at the fan's base raises its edge when the model approaches its maximum operating temperature, protecting the motor from overheating. Furthermore, both the base and the blades are made from anodized aluminum, protecting them from corrosion and improving the model's thermal conductivity. Plus, the high-quality paintwork will ensure the attractive black finish does not start chipping or fading anytime soon.

Of course, there's nothing new about these solutions. But there's something new about its operating temperature. Where most wood stove fans start at ~185 degrees Fahrenheit, this model starts working the moment the stove's temperature reaches 122 degrees, so you don't have to wait 'till the room's already pretty warm. So, assuming that sounds appealing, the PYBBO 5-Blade Fireplace Fan is the model for you.
