    Hello

    When the snap disc senses the exhaust temp of usually 120 deg F on most stoves or 110 Deg F on AES Magnum and Country Flame stoves the convection / room blower turns on. If the disc is an airstream mount then Not if it is real dirty from exhaust ash!

    Harman, Quadrafire, and Heatilators do not have such a disk.

    Nor does Englander and Pelpro has a surface mound that does not get dirty. :)

    However Enviro, Magnum, Country Flame, Lopi, Avalon and a few others do. :)
