Draft Booster Cowls

Tired of smoke pouring into your room every time you light your wood heater or fireplace? You’re not alone.

Many homes suffer from poor chimney draft, especially in cold, still, or windy conditions.

A draft booster is a smart, simple solution that helps your fire draw properly from the moment you light it. By improving airflow through the flue, a draft booster stops smoke from spilling into your living space. No more coughing, smoky smells, or setting off smoke alarms.

Introducing two brands –  BlueChimney and Exodraft  – these make some of the best chimney fans on the market, designed to get your fire going cleanly and keep it burning efficiently.

BlueChimney flue boosters are quiet, efficient, and easy to use—perfect for homes where smoke has become a constant nuisance. Exodraft flue fans offer a more powerful solution, ideal for homes with difficult or tall flue runs. Both systems create consistent, reliable chimney draft, so you can enjoy a smoke-free fire every time. Whether you’re lighting up for the first time on a chilly morning, or keeping the fire going through the night, a draft booster makes your heater safer, cleaner, and easier to use. Browse our range of smoke control solutions, and let BlueChimney and Exodraft help you enjoy your fire the way it should be—without the smoke.

Simple review

From a technical perspective, when a wood heater is operating correctly, the flue maintains a pressure of 14–16 pascals. A cold flue, on the other hand, sits at 0 pascals. It generally takes at least 20 minutes for the flue to reach the right temperature and establish the necessary 14–16 pascal pressure.
