Yeah, he’s saying don’t run the bathroom exhaust fan while you have a fire burning. The reason is that the chimney is just exhausting air via convection, and if you turn the exhaust fan on, it will suck the smoke into your living space instead of allowing it to go out the chimney. Tbh though, real world, if the chimney isn’t flowing, you’ll notice all the smoke and smoke smell in the room.

Aah, that the fan sucks so much air that it sucks it out of the chimney. But no, the airflow up the chimney when its burning is much more than this pax-fan. Thats no problem. Yeah, if a bird ever nests in there, ill notice it pretty quick haha
