Dispositif qui limite automatiquement le débit d’air du tirage : disposé sur le raccordement de la chaudière à son conduit de fumée, le coupe-tirage classique est un volet basculant sur un axe solidaire d’un contre-poids. Aujourd’hui, les coupe-tirage sont plus souvent des boîtiers garnis d’une série de lamelles de volets mobiles, qui s’ouvrent dès que la dépression est assez forte. 3, record 1, French, - coupe%2Dtirage

[Conduit de fumée.] Si, en dépit du rétrécissement, le tirage est encore surabondant, on installe un coupe-tirage, c’est-à-dire qu’en un point A du conduit on pratique une ouverture qui met la zone A de la cheminée à la pression atmosphérique. Un autre avantage du coupe-tirage est de favoriser une entrée d’air qui par sa masse, retarde la condensation. 4, record 1, French, - coupe%2Dtirage
