Cold Weather Installations
An additional back draft damper should be installed to

should be installed to minimize conduction of outside tem-
peratures as part of the vent system. The damper should
be on the cold air side of the thermal break.
The break should be as close as possible to where the
vent system enters the heated portion of the house.
Makeup Air
Local building codes may require the use of makeup air
systems when using ventilation systems greater than
