Off The Air BEEEEEEEEP
I had installed my wood stove in the fall with a through the ceiling kit.
Never having a stove before I really didn't know what to expect. Had to open windows several times.:hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange:
Well after a lot of reading i knew that I needed to add 2 more feet to my chimney to get it to draft better. I had 12' from the bottom of the stove to the top of the pipe outside. I read after install that you needed a minimum of 13'.
This weekend I finally got around to getting the other 2' of pipe and getting it put up.
WHAT A DIFFERENCE 2' MADE.
Seems like I have much better draft. I can turn the air down lower or completely off and my glass isn't smoking up as bad or as quick. Also much easier to build a fire from a cleaned out stove.
I got this done almost just in time for our winter here to end!!
