AIR CIRCULATION OF THE HEATING SYSTEM
Always refer to the applicable national building code before installing the hot air
conduct.
It is recommended to
install floor grilles in
order to balance the air
pressure between the
floors
where
the
appliance is installed and
the upper floor.
It is also recommended
to install these floor
grilles to each home
extremity.
An air supply must be installed if:
The appliance seems to have an irregular draft control, a smoke return, a
bad combustion and a counterblow whether you have combustion or not.
Your other appliances, such as hearths or other heating appliances,
release odors, provide poor performance, provoke smoke return or a
counterblow whether there is combustion or not.
If the window is open, even slightly, in the calm weather (no wind), the
situation above is solved.
Your home is built with vapour barrier and airtight windows, and/or with a
system device to blow the air outside.
In these circumstances, which mean the air infiltration is insufficient, you must
ensure an adequate air supply.
* In doubt, it is recommended to ensure an adequate supply of fresh air.
Hot air pipe:
8" diameter for 20 feet length.
6" diameter for 15 feet length.
