What can I do if there is too much smoke coming out of my stove?
Is there a lot of smoke coming from the stove? First check the draft, the wood and the method of firing. This way, you prevent smoke and inconvenience to yourself and the neighbours.
A wood stove has enough trait necessary to burn properly. This draft is caused by air coming through the ash pan enters and via the stovepipe goes outside. If this does not work properly, more smoke is created.
Check this out first:
— Is there enough space around the stovepipe (at least 3 meters free around the top)?
— Do you burn with dry wood with a moisture percentage of 15— 22%?
— Aren't you using painted, impregnated or damp wood from the garden?
— Aren't you using paper, cardboard or waste wood?
If there is too little space around the stovepipe or if there is something in the air stream (such as an eaves or tree), a extension of the stove tube improve appetite and reduce smoke.
The method of firing is also important. We recommend the Swiss method on, also known as “reverse firing”. In addition, you stack logs like a pyramid, with the large blocks at the bottom and small firelighters on top. You light the fire at the top. This ensures clean combustion and as little smoke as possible.
