9.6 smoking
A properly installed appliance should not smoke. If yours does, check the following:
•
Has the chimney had time to get hot?
•
Is the smoke passage blocked anywhere in the appliance, chimney connector or chimney?
•
Is the room too airtight and the air intake not connected to the outside? Try with a window partly open.
•
Is the smoke fl ow impeded by too long a horizontal pipe or too many bends?
•
Is it a weak draft perhaps caused by a leaky chimney, a cold outside chimney, too large a diameter of a
chimney, too short a chimney, or a chimney too close to trees or a higher roof?
•
Is the moisture content of the wood greater than 20%?
•
If equipped, has the catalyst bypass been closed or closed prematurely?
