Hey guys, I have a Brunco wood furnace in my basement. Chimney runs from basement floor up through center of house (two story) & when I load it up it will puff smoke out the spinn draft on the loading door. I have used this same furnace for 20 yrs & in the past the only time it did this was an indication that the chimney needs cleaned. This year I moved the furnace to the other side of the chimney to get more in the center of the house for better heat distribution, I use it as a stand alone, rather than a add on to my LP furnace, with its own plenum & duct work. The stove pipe is the same length run,& everything else is the same as it has been for yrs. I store 4-5 cords of wood in the basement same as always so I know it is dry. I alway have run the bottom draft at 1/2 open & top draft at 1/2 to full open. This year I have had to close the top off completly when it gets to smoking. I need to figure this out,my LP has not been hooked up for 3 years now so this is my heat.
And yes the chimney & pipe are clean. Any ideas?
Thanks Dave
