Most likely you have

ordinary range draft the air

of th firebox only, which
makes your fire hot at taw
draft end and cold at the
Other end. Now the draft

entirely different. Instead
of one damper door, there
are TWO, one in each and
of the firebox, and both are
regulated by the same han
dle. So you get two direct currents of

burns smoothly and evenly.

Th draft striking the
fire from both directions
