Abstract: A furnace including a combustion chamber for burning fuel can have increased fuel burning efficiency, increased heating efficiency, and decreased harmful emissions of combustion byproducts. A combustion air delivery system delivers primary and secondary combustion air to the combustion chamber. Primary and secondary combustion air may be delivered at amounts that increase burning efficiency. An amount of secondary combustion air can be controlled by a valve system. A heat transfer device efficiently transfers heat from products of combustion for heating an enclosed space.
Abstract: A furnace including a housing and a firebox in the housing having a combustion chamber. The furnace includes a combustion air delivery system for delivering combustion air to the combustion chamber. The combustion air delivery system includes a manifold mounted outside the combustion chamber and extending vertically along the front face of the combustion chamber from a lower end to an upper end. An air blower is mounted on the manifold. The combustion air delivery system includes a primary combustion air passage for delivering air from the air blower to a primary combustion air outlet at the front face of the combustion chamber. The combustion air delivery system includes a secondary combustion air passage for delivering air to a secondary combustion air outlet positioned inside the combustion chamber adjacent the top face of the combustion chamber.
