SMOKE IN THE FURNACE ROOM
This condition is usually caused because smoke
is not being drawn up through the chimney. Other
causes could be a failed (firebox)heat exchanger.
Check with your qualified furnace service
provider.
Chimney causes:
1. Fresh air for combustion must be supplied to
the furnace room.
2. Cold chimney. Warm air rises and cool air falls.
Outside chimneys are cold, which can cause
downdrafts until the chimney heats up. This
usually happens in the spring and fall of the year
when outdoor temperatures are mild. These
temperatures do not produce enough heat to
warm the chimney up.
3. Chimney not tall enough. It must terminate at
least 2 feet above the peak of the roof.
4. A downdraft can occur when the wind blows.
This happens when your home is in a valley or
high trees are near your home. Also, if your
house is on the east side of a hill or mountain.
One solution is to add a chimney cap with a
weather vane. This often will turn a downdraft
into an updraft. Another solution is to add
height to your chimney. Another solution is to
add a power ventor to the smoke pipe. The
power ventor operates when the thermostat is
calling for wood heat.
5. The barometric draft control must be set at .03.
If set less, the chimney may not draw. If set
higher, the wood fire may draw too much
combustion air. This causes the room temperature
to exceed the thermostat setting.
