Abstract
The present disclosure addresses systems, media, and methods of configuring a heating system comprising a plurality of combustion-type heating devices fluidly coupled to a vent system. Configuring the heating system includes receiving operating pressure data from one or more pressure sensors in a flue of one of combustion-type heating devices and the vent system. The operating pressure data from the one or more pressure sensors is indicative of a pressure at a corresponding location in the vent system. Configuring the heating system further includes comparing the operating pressure data to stored operational pressure data indicative of operational pressure ranges indicative of permissible operating parameters associated with preventing backflow of flue gases into the one of combustion-type heating devices and outputting instructions for a damper to at least partially open or at least partially close based at least in part on the operating pressure data and the stored operational pressure data.
