COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional backdraft damper installed to minimize backward cold air #ow and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the ductwork. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break.

The break should be as close as possible to where the ducting enters the heated portion of the house.

Make up air: Local building codes may require the use of Make-Up Air Systems when using Ducted Ventilation Systems greater than speci$ed CFM of air movement.

The speci$ed CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for speci$c requirements in your area.
