CAUTION

FOLLOW MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS 
ON HOW TO INSTALL THE BAROMETRIC 
REGULATOR. MOUNT IT VERTICAL OR 
VERTICALLY.

WARNING

LACK OF ENOUGH AIR FOR PROPER 

COMBUSTION

If your house is fairly well insulated and relatively 

air tight, it may be necessary for you to think of 

providing  an  additional  source  of  fresh  air  into 

your house to eliminate the possibility of starving 

the wood burning stove of the necessary amount 

for good combustion.

If you have a clothes dryer, kitchen or a bathroom 

exhaust fans, or even a fireplace burning and is 

competing for the available combustion air which 

could  cause  improper  combustion.  This  could 

result in some smoke backing up into your house.

You might need to look at installing an air to air 

exchanger  or  finding  another  way  to  get  some 

fresh air to prevent the smoke back up.

For  any  questions  feel  free  to  call  1-800-358-

2049.

Use approximate 45 degree adj. elbows for angled 

connections – NO HORIZONTAL PIPING.

INSTALLATION

Barometric  Draft  Control  field  6”  RC/BT  provided 

with your model 100 Vapor Fire Furnace. A draft reg-

ulator is designed for insertion into a six (6) inch tee. 

Refer to Figure 9 and 11 for mounting of the baro-

metric  damper.  It  is  recommended  that  the  stove 

pipe be installed with the crimped end down so that 

if any creosote is formed, as a natural by-product of 

combustion, it will run back towards the furnace and 

not run through the joint to the outside of the smoke 

pipe. The section of pipe (tee) holding the draft regu-

lator must be installed in either an angled or vertical 

direction.

The draft control can be positioned within its collar 

to an upright position.

It is essential that the draft regulator be located in 

the same room (pressure zone) as the furnace and 

as close as possible to the flue outlet.

After  installation,  make  certain  the  draft  control 

barometric  regulator  is  upright  and  level.  Tighten 

the screw to hold firmly in place. See Figure 10.
