Abstract From the Canadian patent

A balanced draft vent system for a lumber kiln is shown and described wherein external and internal air pressure differential is taken into account in conjunction with internal humidity measurement in providing a balanced volumetric exchange of cool moisture laden air exiting the kiln and ambient air introduced into the kiln. The air exchange function of the balanced draft vent system operates independent of the driving forces of air circulation within the kiln.
