#BAROMETRIC DRAFT CONTROL MANUAL#
Reader Question: can I put to barometric dampers on the same flue along with a manual one on my Alaska Channing III Coal Stove? Watch out: if the incoming combustion air cannot be shut down because of leaky coal stove gaskets or other damage like the broken glass in the coalstove door, the coal stove is unsafe as its burn-rate cannot be regulated.Īlso see FIRE CLEARANCES WOOD & COAL STOVES Yes ultimately these get broken by a careless occupant or user, putting the stove out of use until the glass could be replaced. The vertical lines you see in the glass front of each of these coal burners allowed the installation of glass that would not fracture due to thermal expansion, allowing the occupants to enjoy watching the fire. This wood/coal heater, installed by Paul Galow in New York in the 1970's, also had a sliding air intake control and no accessible flue damper. The second fireplace-inserted heater at above right is a coal stove that was designed to also burn wood. A slider along the stove bottom permitted the user to adjust the air intake rate - a necessary combustion and heat control since the installation of this stove in front of a small fireplace gave no access room for a flue damper control. The coal stove shown at above left was installed by the author (DF) in the 1970's. Coal stove dampers & draft controlĬoal fueled heaters use manual dampers in the coal stove flue or for larger and automatically-fed coal fired boilers or furnaces the system may incorporate a thermostatically-operated automatic flue damper to control both draft and thus the system's heat output.
