So I installed a wood stove in my garage and I have a few questions.
I'm having some draft problems when it's dampened down with a lot of moisture running down the stove pipe...on the inside and outside.
The woods been split and drying two years now so I would think it's plenty dry....what can be causing this ?
Also while the stoves burning the draft holes on the front of the stove make for lack of better terms a "helicopter" noise ...kinda like a poof poof poof noise while drawing in the air ..what would cause this ?
I'm thinking I may possibly need another piece of pipe added to create a better draft ....it drafts really good when it's burning hot but not so good when it's dampened off .
Thanks for any help!
