Abstract:
A furnace includes a controller configured to instruct a blower of the furnace to increase an exhaust flowrate of the furnace, instruct a gas regulation device of the furnace to increase a fuel input rate of the furnace, or both in response to a determination that the fuel input rate is below a threshold fuel input rate for a threshold time period. In some embodiments, the controller is configured to instruct the blower to maintain an increased exhaust flowrate for a flame-stabilizing time period the gas regulation device to maintain an increased fuel input rate for the flame-stabilizing time period, or both.
