If you’re dealing with a tricky wood heater installation—like a short flue run, lots of bends, a steep or cathedral ceiling, or a location where wind or surrounding buildings affect your draft—an Exodraft powered cowl could be the ideal solution. Unlike a standard flue that relies on natural draft, the Exodraft system uses a small fan at the top of the flue to actively pull smoke and gases up and out of the chimney. This means it can keep your heater drawing properly even when the installation conditions are far from ideal, preventing smoke spillage and improving overall performance.

For these more challenging setups, we can design a custom Exodraft solution tailored to your specific installation. Whether it’s a space with clearance restrictions, a multi-storey apartment, or a low roof pitch that makes it hard to meet flue height requirements, Exodraft gives us the flexibility to make the system safe, compliant, and effective. Once we’ve received the design of your flue system, we program the Exodraft solution to ensure it runs efficiently with your heater. This gives you the peace of mind that no matter your situation, the Exodraft Cowl will work reliably.
