  • Burners and Steamfitting
CONT

The forced-draft pot burner is a modification of the natural-draft pot burner, since the only significant difference between the two types is the means of supplying combustion air. The forced-draft pot burner supplies its own air for combustion and does not rely totally on the chimney.

CONT

... forced draft pot burners may be used in central heating furnaces.

OBS

Vaporizing pot-type burners can be divided into two groups: the natural-draft type and the forced-draft type.
