Draft is the force which moves air from the appliance up through the
chimney. The amount of draft in your chimney depends on the length of
the chimney, local geography, nearby obstructions and other factors. Too
much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance and may
cause damage. An uncontrollable burn or excessive temperature indicates
excessive draft. Inadequate draft may cause back puffing into the room
and plugging of the chimney. Inadequate draft will cause the appliance to
leak smoke into the room through appliance and chimney connector joints.
Ensure the heater is installed in areas that are not too close to neighbors
or in valleys that would cause unhealthy air quality or nuisance conditions.
