mhrischuk said:I just installed two big stoves in my house. It's a modern home with pretty good sealing except for the 45 recessed lights scattered throughout the house. I decided against an OAK because in my research I came to the conclusion that there is a better chance of no issues by not installing one than installing one. If I think my stoves are starving for air and/or we experience cold drafts in other rooms I might revisit. Until then why bother?
There are just to many variables with pressure differentials between the inside and the outside air.
This is interesting reading..

Climate has a big factor in this. Leaky or tight construction Mr Guland seems quite ignorant to mention this. I will shut up now. :zip:
