I have to preface by saying that this isn’t really related to Home Assistant. I can’t find a more generic home automation community on Lemmy and I figured someone here might have some experience with this so I hope is post is allowed.
I have a large masonry fireplace that I’m fixing some issues with. It has a fresh air intake that I’m venting outside the house. Code says the air intake also has to have a damper which can be closed to prevent the fire from burning out of control.
I’m planning to use a 24 volt power open/power close damper. I want to be able to modulate it with a wall control where it can be set in increments somewhere between 0% and 100% open. I’m sure I could engineer a creative solution but I wanted to see if anyone else had a simpler way of accomplishing this first.
Nice. I don’t know about the torque requirements or mounting dimensions of your existing (or new?) damper so double check those. Kinda sucks that they don’t make one that takes the pot signal directly. I know a lot of lighting dimmers are 0-10v but how they are powered and interact with that damper is uncharted territory.
