Good morning,
We’ve decided to move the Lopi Freedom upstairs to the great room and so I picked up a 2019 answer NT to put in the smaller basement. This model doesn’t come with a damper, and Im afraid with the 25’ chimney it might pull too much draft.
Since this unit is smaller, I’d like to add a damper to give more control (plenty of room to do so). The handle will run out the custom bezel we are making.
Would this cause any operational issues? I figure worst case it just stays open.
Pics attached
