never noticed this before last week.
our wood stove is very small. the firebox is approx 18" x 12" x 12".
we have burned more wood in the last 3 weeks then the 5 or so prior. during the super cold in the last few weeks we were unable to let the stove go out and clean it. the ash was about 1 or so deep. we had to burn with the draft wide open to keep up with the temps! friday was 50* here so we let it die and cleaned it out. saturday right back to the cold temps but now the stove is obviously putting out more heat and with less draft.
i usually cut a furrow in the coals under the logs to promote air circulation, the wood is all from the same pile. what gives?
