DRAFT INDUCER-BAROMETRIC DAMPER
Continued:
Maintenance:
The Draft Inducer and Barometric Damper will continue to operate efficiently on the WinterGreen Fur-
nace as long as periodic maintenance is performed. Depending on the wood being burned, the draft in-
ducer fan must be inspected at least twice monthly during the heating season and removed from the
stove pipe and cleaned at least twice a year, preferably several times a year, more so during the heating
season. The Barometric Damper should be cleaned at the same intervals as the Draft Inducer. Observ-
ing the damper’s movement to see if operates sluggish or if there is a reduced performance of the Draft
Inducer is a clear sign that the damper requires cleaning. Cleaning of these components can be accom-
plished with a small fine wire brush.
BURNING OF RESINOUS WOODS SUCH AS PINE AND FIR ETC. PRO-
DUCE AN ABUNDANCE OF CREOSOTE WHICH CAN COAT THE IN-
SIDE OF THE CHIMNEY DRAFT INDUCER AND BAROMETRIC
DAMPER. STACK TEMPERATURES MAY BECOME HIGH ENOUGH TO
IGNITE THE DEPOSITS AND CAUSE A CHIMNEY FIRE.
THE DRAFT INDUCER, FLUE PIPE AND CHIMNEY MUST BE KEPT
CLEAN AND IN GOOD CONDITION.
EXTREME CAUTION MUST BE EXCERCISED TO ENSURE THE RADI-
ANT HEAT GENERATED BY THE FURNACE AND STOVE PIPES DO
NOT DAMAGE THE ELECTRICAL WIRING OF THE DRAFT INDUCER.
