Last night around 10 pm I loaded my stove for overnight.As usual I raked coals down and loaded stove with splits.
Around 11 pm I was sitting in room where stove is located and heard "WHOOF"followed by smoke coming out of every joint in stove pipe.I watched the stove for a few minutes and it done it again.the flame would get very small and then "WHOOF " many flames in stove and smoke evrywhere.its did this three or four time in about hour and half period.
Finally I just used tongs and removed the wood from stove.MY questions whats going on.I have used this stove for several years now and have never had this problem.I checked outside and no wind was blowing period.
The stove is a Century free standing with secondary burn tubes .I have about 2 ft of black pipe on it then a 90 elbow going into a thimble in a massonary chimney.Anyone every experienced this or have any ideas as to what happened
