A housing overlies the vane. Hinge and weight means are attached to the vane and baffle plate to permit opening of the baffle plate, in response to gas pressure exerted on an interior surface of the vane, and closing down thereof, to maximize efficiency of the furnace by providing a properly sized flue outlet during different phases of use of the furnace.
