MEASURE: Reduced air flow
Air flow in flue reduced by the use of permanent or temporary measures such as a register plate with fixed ventilation, fitting of an enclosed stove, fitting of a damper plate or using a chimney balloon allowing residual air flow
Monitoring & feedback recommended: Yes
ADVANTAGES
Lower energy use through a reduction in rate of air change in property.
