C. Negative Pressure

D. Draft

WARNING! Risk of Asphyxiation! Negative pressure can cause spillage of combustion fumes and soot.

Negative pressure results from the imbalance of air avail- able for the ﬁ replace to operate properly. It can be strongest in lower levels of the house.

Causes include:

•Exhaust fans (kitchen, bath, etc.)

•Range hoods

•Combustion air requirements for furnaces, water heaters and other combustion appliances

•Clothes dryers

•Location of return-air vents to furnace or air conditioning

•Imbalances of the HVAC air handling system

•Upper level air leaks such as:

-Recessed lighting

-Attic hatch

-Duct leaks

To minimize the effects of negative air pressure:

•Install the outside air kit with the intake facing prevailing winds during the heating season

•Ensure adequate outdoor air for all combustion appliances and exhaust equipment

•Ensure furnace and air conditioning return vents are not located in the immediate vicinity of the ﬁ replace

•Avoid installing the appliance near doors, walkways or small isolated spaces

•Recessed lighting should be a “sealed can” design

•Attic hatches weather stripped or sealed

•Attic mounted duct work and air handler joints and seams taped or sealed

Draft is the pressure difference needed to vent ﬁ replaces successfully. When a ﬁ replace is drafting successfully, all combustion byproducts are exiting the home through the chimney.

Install through the warm airspace enclosed by the building envelope. This helps to produce more draft, especially dur- ing lighting and die-down of the ﬁ re.

Considerations for successful draft include:

•Preventing negative pressure

•Location of ﬁ replace and chimney

NOTICE: Hearth & Home Technologies assumes no responsibility for the improper performance of the chimney system caused by:

•Inadequate draft due to environmental conditions

•Downdrafts

•Tight sealing construction of the structure

•Mechanical exhausting devices
