Hoping to get some help on the venting of the kettle and firebox for our direct fire 15bbl system (Economite RE4850A burner). We are trying to avoid putting holes in the roof of the building so our idea was to run the stacks out the side just above the brewhouse. My questions are:
Anything specific that we need to avoid doing for sure?
Is there a minimum distance we need to go straight out of the kettle before making a bend?
Are relatively short horizontal runs ok (5'-6')? Do we need a condensate drain on that run?
Is it possible to combine both stacks so that there is only one penetration through the wall. My thinking is no but I saw a picture of one done this way somewhere.
At what point do we need a fan on the kettle exhaust? Most information that I've read says if the run is >20'.
Do we need an atmospheric damper on the firebox exhaust?
Any help or further resources anyone can send my way is much appreciated.
Cheers!
