Run it down the chimney? I'm not sure what you mean.
I originally planned to just set the box fan on top of the chimney blowing down. The problem is that the chimney is much smaller than the box fan. So, I need a smaller fan. Since I need a different fan I figured I'd switch to one that would work better as well (squirrel cage, thx for confirming my suspicion). |
It might too high velocity for this application, but if you've got a leaf blower you could try setting it up with the discharge down the chimney.

Thats a good idea. I was thinking a car blower would probably work decent. Possibly a furnace blower, but run at a lower speed. Can you simply disconnect 1 leg of the 110V an an AC motor?
|
Are you going to give the air an explicit return path as well?

I don't know about disconnecting one leg of 220. I think they make similar motors in 120V, though. |
Here's a 120V motor that you might be able to make work: https://www.surpluscenter.com/item.a...tname=electric

Here's a cheap one if you don't want to invest a lot of money for a test: https://www.surpluscenter.com/item.a...tname=electric
