COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional backdraft damper
installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a non-metallic thermal
break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the duct
work. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break. The
break should be as close as possible to where the ducting enters the heated
portion of the house.
