Q: Does it need to be plugged in?
No, the fan generates its own current from the heat of the stovetop, so it needs no cord and no batteries.
45K1870 - Ecofan UltrAir

This ingenious wood stove fan is completely silent and costs nothing to operate.
Set directly on the stovetop, the Ecofan uses a phenomenon known as the Seebeck effect to generate an electrical current by exploiting the temperature difference between the stovetop and the ambient air. The fan speed varies with the temperature difference: greater difference, greater speed.
Made largely from anodized aluminum, the fan stands 9" tall and has an 8" diameter brass blade. It operates between stove surface temperatures of 212° to 650°F (100° to 345°C) and moves up to 125 cfm of air to help distribute heat.
Practical and energy-efficient, it’s a useful gift for anyone who appreciates clever, well-made products that earn their place in the home.
