Boiler draught is the small difference between the pressure of the atmosphere and the air present in a chimney or furnace. A boiler is used to produce the draught so that it can provide enough air for combustion. This makes the hot gases present in a chimney, flow through the system and then discharge these gases before releasing into the atmosphere.
