The Ecofan was one of the great inventions of the twentieth century. I have been using one in my cabin for over 10 years. I have a non-electric cabin, for the most part, and this fan really helps spread the heat around. It comes in 3 different styles depending on your needs. It makes a profound difference in the comfort level and saves money by allowing you to burn less wood to heat up the room. It produces its' own electricity. There is even a model for gas fired stoves. If you heat with wood and don't have an ecofan, you are really missing out. Spread the warmth, you will be glad you did. See more at http://www.cabispin.com
