POWER VENTERS & CONTROL KITS
MECHANICAL DRAFT THAT MOVES WITH YOUR SYSTEM
Power venters allow fuel-burning appliances to safely vent combustion gases through side walls or rooftops when a natural chimney isn’t available or ideal. By using a fan-driven exhaust system, they help maintain proper draft pressure, improve burner performance, and give installers flexibility in system design.
When paired with a matching control kit, Field Controls’ power venters operate only when needed—improving safety, reducing energy waste, and protecting equipment.
WHY POWER VENTING SYSTEMS MATTER
Vent Without a Chimney Power venters enable safe horizontal or vertical flue gas venting for appliances in basements, garages, and other confined spaces.
Consistent, Controlled Draft Ensures combustion gases are exhausted at the correct rate, reducing backdraft risk and improving burner efficiency.
Improved Safety Control kits activate the venter only during burner operation and provide built-in safety interlocks to verify proper airflow before ignition.
Flexible Installation for retrofit or nontraditional installations where gravity venting isn’t possible or code-compliant.
HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS
When the thermostat calls for heat, the control kit activates the power venter fan, which begins exhausting flue gases from the appliance. Once proper airflow is confirmed by the pressure or airflow switch, the burner is allowed to ignite. After the heat cycle ends, the post-purge control will begin and keep the fan running briefly, clearing any remaining combustion gases.
This sequence ensures safe operation every time—while reducing standby losses and preventing hot air from lingering in the vent line.

Excess humidity can lead to mold, odors, and poor indoor air quality, but not all solutions are equal. This guide compares portable and whole-house dehumidifiers, breaking down how each works, their pros and limitations, and which option best addresses your home’s moisture challenges.
Standard 1-inch HVAC filters often fall short on airflow, lifespan, and particle capture. FlexFilters offer a smarter solution with expanded surface area, balanced airflow, and longer service life—helping protect your system while improving indoor air quality.
Your HVAC system moves air through your home all day long, but without proper filtration and purification, it may also be circulating dust, allergens, mold spores, microbes, and chemical pollutants. These contaminants can repeatedly cycle through your ductwork and living spaces, affecting comfort and long-term health. Understanding how HVAC airflow works and why standard filters often fall short can help homeowners take the right steps to improve indoor air quality and reduce airborne contaminants throughout the home.
A media air cleaner is a whole-home filtration upgrade that integrates directly into your HVAC system to capture more airborne particles, improve airflow, and extend filter life. Unlike standard 1-inch filters, media air cleaners use deep-pleated filters and sealed cabinets to deliver cleaner air throughout your entire home with less maintenance.
Indoor air can be up to five times more polluted than outdoor air, particularly in energy-efficient homes that are tightly sealed, allowing pollutants like germs, VOCs, and odors to accumulate over time and potentially cause health problems for residents. Learn how a whole house air purifier can help.
Your HVAC system may be circulating more than just air. Dust, mold, and bacteria can build up and impact your health. Discover how whole-home purification helps.
