Hi,
I have an "aftermarket" gas fireplace in the living room. It is along an outside wall and vented out that wall. The is a major draft coming in from the front air grates. There is no damper to close off. It is a Lennox. Is there something I'm missing to cut off this air infiltration???
Thanks.

These gas fire place are sealed system..
Where the cold draft coming from?? Bottom of the fireplace vent where the gas valve, and fan at?
Maybe the last owner didn't put insulation in the wall behind the fireplace itself...???
