Learn how to manage the pressure in a boiler's exhaust stack.

Pressure in a boilers stack can greatly affect the combustion process potentially costing you money or creating a dangerous situation. Today WARE Boiler University Instructor Jude Wolf will talk about how to utilize Barometric Draft controls to manage the pressures inside of the exhaust stack.

While the perfect draft pressure in a boiler will be different for each installation, how it works is all the same. Allowing the exhaust gasses to escape properly with a changing load or external pressures is key for having a well tuned combustion system. Watch as Jude explains how the control works and functions in a steam boiler system.
