We recenly bought a house that has a propane fireplace and we noticed the wind blows in through the exhaust vent I guess. There's also a draft on non windy days. Is this normal? Should there be a damper or something that closes when not in use??
It has a little vent on the side of the house, about 1x2 Stainless Steel vent, but that does not seem to help with the wind.
The fireplace is a Majestic IVDR33RP. I'm not familar with propane fireplaces. Thanks
anyone??
Hi Steve,
I would check that the flashing on the vent termination is properly caulked and sealed -- if not, air can leak *around* the vent and make its way into the living space.
Cheers, Paul
Are you sure on the model number? I have not heard of the one and do not find a listing on the Distributor tech site. The 33' will be the width. R is remote ready. P is propane. I do not think the "IV" is correct.
