R EDGE 60 Pellet Fireplace B. Avoiding Smoke and Odors To prevent soot damage to exterior walls of the house and to prevent re-entry of soot or ash into the house: Negative Pressure, Shut-Down and Electrical Power Failure To reduce the probability of back-drafting or burn-back in the pellet appliance during power failure or shut down conditions, it must be able to draft naturally without exhaust blower operation.
R R EDGE 60 Pellet Fireplace C. Negative Pressure D. Draft Warning! Risk of Asphyxiation! Negative pressure can cause spillage of combustion fumes and soot. Negative pressure results from the imbalance of air available for the fireplace to operate properly. It can be strongest in lower levels of the house. Draft is the pressure difference needed to vent fireplaces successfully. When a fireplace is drafting successfully, all combustion byproducts are exiting the home through the chimney.
