Insufficient combustion air causes:
Flue gas spillage, flame roll-outs, decreased efficiencies, and reduced heating equipment life.
Conventional metal louvers often are a major cause of these problems:
Unregulated outdoor air supply
Architecturally unsightly large
outside wall openings that often require structural reinforcement.
Mechanical room freeze ups in
northern climates.
Often not compatible with below grade or
interior mechanical rooms.
Tjernlund In-Forcer combustion air intakes are packaged systems engineered to provide controlled, interlocked combustion air.
Wall or roof opening size can be reduced by up
to 80% compared to conventional metal louvers.
In-Forcers include
matching, low profile intake hoods that can be mounted on either a roof or sidewall.
Use small diameter
duct to deliver out­door air up to 100 feet away from intake hood.
Complies with Mechanical
Code requirements for combustion air supply.

Use in virtually all mechanical room locations
The IN-FORCER can be ducted up to 100 equivalent feet from the intake hood. Even isolated mechanical rooms can easily be supplied with outdoor combustion air. Cold outdoor air can be distributed through standard ducts and diffusers at ceiling level, allowing the air to be tempered as it drops to the floor, eliminating cold spots in the mechanical room. Mechanical room noise transfer to the outside is further reduced since there is no direct wall opening, typical of standard air intake louvers.
Variety of applications
Restaurant kitchens with negative pressure caused by exhaust fans
Interior mechanical rooms with no direct access to an outside wall
Conversions from electricto gas or oil heating appliances
Duct air from roof
top for interior
mechanical rooms
Intake direct thru outside wall
Run horizontal duct up to 100 feet
Compared to standard louvers, wall openings can be reduced by up to 80%. This eliminates the need for extra support around the opening that can cost far more in extra construction labor and materials than the total installed cost of an IN-FORCER.
What’s more, IN-FORCER’S low profile hood blends into a sidewall or roofline and is designed to keep wind and rain out. Heavy duty 5052 aluminum construction will not corrode.
Small wall opening lowers installation cost
Improves building’s
exterior appearance
The original and most
practical alternative

Easy installation and servicing
Millivolt Safety Interlock Kit
Model WHKE
For use with UC1 Universal Control, MAC1E or MAC4E auxiliary controls. The WHKE gas pressure switch actuates the IN-FORCER through the A – B dry contacts. The Linear Limit switch disables the heater in the event of a venting malfunction. Includes JA1 thermocouple junction adapter. To interlock millivolt water heater(s) only with a UC1 controlled IN-FORCER add a WHKE for each millivolt heater. To interlock a millivolt water heater and one 24/115 VAC furnace or boiler with a UC1 controlled IN-FORCER, add a WHKE and a MAC1E.
Standard Safety Features
IN-FORCER can be easily inter-
locked with multiple appliances.
Managed air distribution assures comfort
Intake air from the IN-FORCER can be easily diffused to eliminate concentrated cold air. Air can also be heated with a hot water, steam or conventional unit heater.
The IN-FORCER includes a high limit switch to deactivate the system in the event of a mechanical room fire and a pressure switch to detect blockage or system malfunction.
Universal Control
Model UC1
The UC1 Universal Control is the standardized interlock control for Tjernlund Draft/Ventilation products. The UC1 includes adjustable pre/post purge and LED status/diagnostic indicators. Provides easy interlock with any 24/115 VAC burner control circuit and also includes"dry" contactactuation option.
Multiple Appliance Controls
Models MAC1E, MAC4E
Used in conjunction with the UC1 Universal Control to inter­lock additional 24/115 VAC burners. Powered by and communicates with the UC1 through a factory wired whip. For one additional 24/115 VAC heater add the MAC1E. To interlock up to four or more additional 24/115 VAC heaters, add the MAC4E. MAC4Es can be daisy chained together for more than 5 heaters. Important: Total combined BTU/hr. input of all heaters must be within IN-FORCERs capacity.
Easy interlock options with single or multiple appliances
The IN-FORCER attaches with integral mounting brackets or eye bolts. The inlet/outlet collars are 2 1/4 inches deep for easy duct connection. The IN-FORCER features a blower that slides out for easy servicing and a washable aluminum mesh pre-filter.
