Hello everyone,
after some searching here in the forum, I have come to the conclusion that none of the topics really fit my situation. Therefore, a new question on this.
Initial situation:
We have installed 2 chimneys in our house (really 2 separate chimneys, which are standing next to each other). The chimneys basically allow both a room air-dependent and a room air-independent operation. At the same time, we will install decentralized fans.
According to the district chimney sweep, this means that we need a pressure monitor to switch off the fans in case of negative pressure.
The kitchen and living/dining room (where the chimneys are located) are designed quite openly.
First question (somewhat off-topic for the kitchen planning category):
Does anyone know a negative pressure monitor that can monitor 2 flues? Ultimately, the pressure in the room, the pressure outside, and the temperature of 2 smoke pipes would have to be monitored. After all, the whole logic should only be triggered when the stove is actually on.
Now to the actual topic "range hood":
We would like to install a range hood in the kitchen.
According to the chimney sweep, however, this causes the problem that it directly creates negative pressure and then the pressure monitor always triggers.
From my understanding, this should be "switchable" via the info (temperature measurement) from the pressure monitor whether a stove is on or not?
Or how does the whole thing additionally behave with the topic "window contact"? Is this also necessary in this scenario with decentralized fans or not?
That is, exhaust may (can) only run if the stove is off OR stove is on and no negative pressure AND window open?
And to make it not too easy:
I have seen that there are also hybrid range hoods, i.e. a combination of exhaust and recirculation.
In this case, recirculation would always work, but exhaust only as described above – is it possible to control/map something like this?
Has anyone already gained experience here?
Regards Chris
