Combustion Efficiency
Operating the boiler with the optimum amount of excess air minimizes heat loss through the stack and improves combustion efficiency. Combustion efficiency measures how effectively the heat contained in the fuel is converted into usable heat. Stack temperature and the oxygen (or carbon dioxide) concentration in the flue gas are key indicators of combustion efficiency.
