6RCSTD Barometric Draft Control Damper With Collar, 6 In.
Description
A barometric draft control damper regulates airflow in oil, wood, and coal-fired heating systems by automatically adjusting to changing pressure conditions. This Field Controls 6-inch damper with collar maintains optimal draft through your furnace, boiler, breaching and chimney stack, ensuring complete fuel combustion and stable, efficient operation.
Draft problems arise because chimney draft varies constantly due to temperature swings, wind, and barometric pressure changes. Too much draft wastes fuel and raises dangerous chimney temperatures; too little causes incomplete combustion, soot buildup, puff-backs, and potential carbon monoxide issues. A barometric draft control solves these problems by drawing room-temperature air in the precise amount needed to stabilize combustion, slow exhaust gas velocity through the heat exchanger, extract more heat, and reduce maintenance demands.
