ProperUsage

The GS is designed for use on freestanding gas stoves with surface
temperatures between 150 to 300 (65 to 150 Placing your GS
on the stove’s surface with temperatures above 300°F (150°C) will reduce its
effectiveness. It can also damage the unit and void the warranty. Do not use the

The base of the 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.

Placement on the Stove Top

To get maximum performance from your 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:

TM

1) Finding the hottest partofthegasstove surface (up to 300 .

2) Ensuring that cool air can be drawn from behind the Ecofan GS over
the top, cooling fins.

TM

The easiest methodto find thehottest part ofthe stove topwhen using your Ecofan
GS for thefirst time, isto simply place iton various partson the topand then observe
how fast the fan spins. It will turn the fastest on the hottest part. This is the
recommended method forstoves without agrate on thestove top. We have foundthe
following positions to work best on most gas stoves that include a grate on the stove
top:

air is not forced behind fan.

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 or 150ºC,
