It's a well-established fact that setting up combustion systems for too much excess air (or dilution air) wastes fuel. You can use this relationship to calculate just how much you can save by decreasing excess air:

% Fuel Savings = 100 x [1- (Available Heat, High XS Air/Available Heat, Low XS Air)]
