Super-C + Super-R 

Technical Information for Super-C & Super-R

The Super-C has an airflow capacity of up to 300m3 / hr.
 The Super-R has an airflow capacity of up to 380m3 / hr. (25% more up draught)
 Both are constructed in cast aluminium alloy.
ELECTRIC FAN COWLS  Both incorporate a 230V economical yet durable heat shielded motor.
 Suits shaft sizes ranging from 125mm to 230mm (5"-9") in diameter.
THE MAIN FUNCTION OF THE SUPER-C & SUPER-R ELECTRIC  Can be easily installed by a competent DIY or electrical contractor.

INSTALLATION
SOLVES ALL CHIMNEY DRAUGHTING PROBLEMS
1. The decision to install either the Super-C or the Super-R is based on the size of the fireplace
Lack of Draught Downdraughts Improve performance opening area.
Ventilation Problems Stale Smells Moisture Build Up 2. A fireplaces opening area is calculated by multiplying the openings height (H) by its width (W).
3. The Super-C is used when the fireplace opening area does not exceed 4032cm2 or 625ins2.
SUITABLE FOR ALL FUELS
4. The Super-R is used when the fireplace opening area is greater than the above but does not exceed
5776cm2 or 900ins2.
