This would be used close to the stove to blow the smoke the vent-fan isn't. Literally 1 foot... Would this be a good fan to use?

While it would certainly blow smoke from the stove, a new exhaust hood may be a better choice.

No, it is VERY weak. I had the same idea & was laughing at how weak it was for anything!

Yes, has a pretty good volume of air on high. I use it on a boat I work on, and can feel the sir about. 4 feet away.

Unlike a "vent," this wouldn't remove the smoke from the kitchen or filter out cooking smells; it would just move the smoke to another part of the room. Probably not what you have in mind.

Yes, if you turn it on High and aim it at the cooking eye where there is the smoke.

My fan is still waiting to be installed so I can't honestly answer your question, but according to the ratings, the fan should do a great job on that small an area. I plan to install mine soon...........

The directions say to place it so many inches away from flue pipe, so unless your flue pipe is exposed I doubt it would generate enough heat to start the fan.

I would turn on a table fan just to be sure. I do have a stove vent but have not noticed much smoke.

I put under stove exhaust fan while using. Assuming you have vented range hood.

You might be lucky enough to have a trailer where the manufacturer led a wire up to the vent area in anticipation of you wanting to put in a fan. If not, I would have to defer to a good RV shop. Good Luck!

Its not the most powerful fan out there. I ran the one I have straight up and out the roof with an additional kit I purchased at home depot. It draws okay from the two back burners on my gas range. Its less effective with the front ones because they are farther away but its well made and looks very contemporary and clean.

Sorry I haven't responded sooner, but I'm on a hunting and fishing trip and this is the 1st time I've checked my e-mail in a week. Anyway to your question, the unit does put out smoke, you should only use it under your stove vent with the fan on 'high', you will find the it is well worth the effort. I'm pushing 70 and I have never cooked and smoked with such ease, the food is alway delicious. Good luck and Good cooking. John

Yes, I have used mine for that purpose. Just watch that the wind does not blow out the flame so keep an eye on it. I put a metal wind screen against mine if it's a little breezy . It will simmer !

It certainly moves a volume of air, but you'd have to fabricate a fitting over the output opening and route it up to your opening that you plan on exhausting the air. I think you'd be better off with buying an actual attic exhaust fan.

I'm sure your stove will get hot enough to spin the fan, but these fans move very little air. They are more of a novelty, rather than a functioning fan.

It would be too small for that I would think, try turning down you humitfier on your furnace if you have one. This works great in a smaller location like a safe or closet

Will work fine if you have a vent fan that vents out side. They might smell the smoke and come visit for a cup of your coffee. That is unless that cheap heating element doesn't burn out first.

That sounds good, consider where your make up air is going to come from. Without a good free flow source of make up air, you will notget much flow. Perhaps you have a shady and low and cool side of the house where you can add a vent for make up air. The opening for the make up air should be approximately the same square inches as the fan.

This fan moves air, however I use it at close range in my bed room just a few feet away from bed, accompanied with our air conditioner. I don't see it reaching 150 ft, you may want to try a bigger fan, something made for industrial use.

The unit is nothing more than a squirrel cage fan like the one on your furnace. It draws the air through a filter and it can be mounted where ever it will draw the air for your application. The height recommendation is a safety thing so you don't hit it if you move under it--unless you are very tall!I like mine a lot.

I use it with a large BGE with a SmokeWare Chimney Cap. I close the damper on the fan by about 30% and only open the cap vent about an 1/8 inch. I'm able to hold temp down around 200 for long periods using this method. If I don't partially close the damper the cap ends up controlling the temp (using the air being pulled through the fan without it being on) and it tends to run up to about 270 or so. You would probably want to reduce the damper on a larger BGE and increase on a smaller one.
