I'm glad to see the other real world experiences. My day did a lot of Majestic fireplaces the last few years of his life and he had me totally convinced that outside air is the way to go. That article was messing with my head. It does not make sense that drawing air from the room will work as well as drawing it from outside. The air up the chimney has to be replaced in the house by either cold air being pulled in from around windows and doors and other venting or by air that is heated as it passes through. Glad to see others agree. Gary just said " that article is just plain nuts."

The part that is telling? "After study."

Haven't all the "New" codes requiring all kinds of thing brought about by studies? The ground fault circuits for an example. Making houses air tight? Then requiring extras to ventilate.
