The RS012-41 chimney fan is designed for those needing a reliable solution to improve chimney performance and indoor air quality.
By generating negative pressure in the flue, it ensures an optimal draught for efficient combustion, reducing fuel waste and enhancing heat output.
Its horizontal discharge system prevents backdraft issues, keeping smoke away from the living area. Built from high-quality cast aluminum and stainless steel, this model can endure continuous exposure to flue gas temperatures of up to 250°C.
With its optional octagonal base plate, the RS012-41 is well-suited for installation on both brick and round steel chimneys.
Key Features:
- Improves indoor air quality
- Ensures optimal fuel combustion
- Withstands extreme heat
- Horizontal smoke discharge
- Compatible with steel chimneys

Well suited for solid fuels
The chimney fan can be used for all types of fuels but is particularly suitable for solid fuel boilers, fireplaces and stoves. The axial impeller is made of stainless steel, which makes it easy for chimney sweeps to remove soot and deposits.
As the chimney fan is mounted on top of the chimney, a vacuum is created in the flue pipe and the chimney. The chimney fan is part of an exodraft system and must be connected to an exodraft control.
Robust Design
Exodraft RS chimney fans are designed so that they are suitable for continuous use at temperatures up to 250°C. The chimney fan is made of cast aluminium; all screws and bolts are made of stainless steel.
The engine is an enclosed heat-resistant asynchronous motor with permanently lubricated ball bearings, which is protected from the flue gas.
A special cooling vane wheel and cooling air slots safely ensure continuous cooling of the motor. The cable is heat resistant and strain relieved and protected by a reinforced hose casing. All of these combined give the chimney fan high operational reliability and a long service life.
The chimney fan can be opened so that a chimney sweeper can easily clean the chimney. In the discharge opening, a stainless safety mesh is mounted to protect fingers and birds.

Mounting Options
Rainshield Options
This chimney fan will use the RS rainshield.
The EFC16, EFC18, and EFC35 are electronic speed regulators designed for controlling exodraft chimney fans. The EFC16 and EFC35 adjust fan speed, enabling control of the chimney fan’s draught capacity between 25% and 100%.
Both feature a built-in ON/OFF switch, a minimum-speed trimmer, and an LED indicator, and they are CE-certified.
The EFC18 is a manual nine-step speed regulator with an integrated automatic START/STOP function and a boost mode to simplify lighting the fire; it also includes a temperature sensor for installation under the fan.
While the EFC16 offers basic manual control, the EFC35 adds advanced functionality with a temperature sensor for automated fan speed adjustments.
All models require a REP-AFB isolation switch to be mounted on the chimney, which must be installed by an authorized electrician.
Isolation Switch
An isolation switch is a legal requirement that ensures the chimney fan can be safely disconnected from the electrical current, particularly for tasks like chimney sweeping.
The REP-AFB is a 2-pole isolation switch compatible with controls such as EFC16, EFC35, EW41 (included with a repair switch), EBC10v2, and EBC24. In contrast, the REPSW2x16 is a 4-pole isolation switch (or 3-pole with a help switch) designed for use with the EFC18 control system.
The main difference lies in their design and compatibility: the REP-AFB handles fewer poles and supports a wider range of controls, while the REPSW2x16 is specifically suited for more complex setups with EFC18.
Choosing the appropriate isolation switch depends on the chimney fan’s control system to ensure proper functionality and safety compliance.
RSD Dilution Bolts
To manage excessive temperatures in brick chimneys, four RSD-type leveling screws can be placed between the fan and the chimney to introduce dilution air.
When considering the need for dilution air, it’s crucial to factor in the additional capacity required when sizing the fan system.
