Causes For Poor Stove Performance

Sometimes, it seems that the wood stove just isn't working as well as it used to. Do you have such a feeling?

Maybe, you will meet other stove problems, such as smoking, catalyst malfunction, etc. However, today, I’d like to talk about the issue of wood burning stoves poor performance.

Here is a list of possible causes for poor stove performance you can consider. Hope you can benefit from them.

Worn or missing gaskets

Leaky inset stoves will often show a marked decrease in performance. You may find much information about checking and replacing the gaskets discussions.

Wood stove chimney needs cleaning

If the venting system is getting blocked with soot and creosote, it will make a world of difference in terms of performance and safety. Therefore, checking and cleaning your wood burner chimneys as more as well.

Poor wood supply

Are you using the same fuel as always, or a new load? If your wood's too green or wet, it might be the culprit. Burn some other materials, for instance, oak tree.

Changes in the house

Have you recently altered the house, by adding insulation, replacement windows, or new caulking?

Of course, these are not all causes that cause your small stove work inefficiently. You can find other reasons that cause poor performance.

How Long Could A Stove Burn?

Do you care about the burn time of your stove? Some stove can burn over night, some only can burn few hours. How long does your stove last?

How long of burn time can I expect from one burn period, before filling the stove with more coal?

Therefore, what are these factors that affect burning time of inset stoves on earth? There are a lot of variables that can affect the burn time of the unit. These variables include the exterior weather conditions, room temperature desired, draft of the chimney, as well as many other conditions. Results may vary, but the average burn time between loads ranges from 8- 24 hours. These burn times may exceed the averages, according to various situations.

Maximum estimated wood stove burn time. Burn time depends on wood species and moisture content, and on how much heat is needed during the burn. How long will a given stove burn on a single load of wood? The only reasonable answer is: It depends.

Here is a piece of advice for you. You can consider buying a catalytic stove. One advantage of catalytic wood burning stoves is that the good ones can deliver a lower burn rate over a longer period than non-catalytic wood stoves and yet still burn clean. No things are perfect. So the disadvantage of these long burn times is that the door glass tends to get dirty at very low firing rates. If you don’t mind dirty and you’re also willing to do the cleaning, you can buy a catalytic wood burner.

In other words, a stove that has a claimed burn time of ten hours may not be better or more convenient to use than one that delivers an eight hour burn.

Inset Stoves And Gas Stoves

Select A Stove You Really Want

Lots of points really need to be bear in your mind no matter when you decide to use a regular wood stove or choose a corn or pellet stove. It is important for you to know the sort of fuel that your actual version of stove will burn and just what kinds of fuel you cannot make use of safely. In addition, you as well need to be aware of the reason your version of stove uses the fuel sort that it does to burn.

At home, we use the multi burning stoves. And last week, my dad said that, should we consider buying a wood stove in this winter? We've used that multi-fuel stove for around five years with an old, traditional looking.Dad told me that after visiting one of his old friend, he saw a beautiful house with a modern, wonderful inset stove. Dad loves its designing style and wants to make a change for our house.

You should be sure to take into account all of your alternatives as soon as you plan on making use of your wood stove as the primary heating system for your own home. For conventional wood stoves do burn really hot, they will not burn nearly as hot as other alternative stoves like all those that burn corn or pellets.

Here, I want to especially list a thing you maybe forget or make mistake when you are selecting your stoves for sale, fuel method you preferred is just not offered in your location. Imagine how bad it would be to invest in a corn burning stove, have it put in within your residence and then coming to realize that corn isn't readily available within your region in the suitable kind for being used in your corn burning stove!

Steps Of Installing Wood Stove Seal

Steps Of Installing Wood Stove Seal

Do you have a seal on your wood stove? First of all, what is the wood stove seal?

Wood stoves have an opening sealed with gasket, which is a pliable material that allows the stove door to create a tight seal once closed. Fireproof fiberglass gaskets are used around the doors and/or glass windows of your wood stove to help assure optimal burning by stopping air leaks into your stove. So installed gasket (we also call it seal) properly will largely improve burn times on wood stoves and help keep stove glass cleaner.

Moreover, another thing you should also pay attention is, the gasket can become worn out, which will make your inset stove ineffective or inefficient in keeping the fire inside hot. Therefore, when maintaining a wood stove, it is important to replace the gasket or the seal so that your stove is working at its maximum capacity.

Do you know how to install seals or gaskets of multi burning stoves?

First, to choose the diameter for replacement, measure the channel into which the gasket will be installed, or measure the existing gasket for best replacement size.

And then remove old gasket material.

Thoroughly clean away all the old adhesive.

Spread gasket cement around the interior of the door where the seal will be applied. Be careful not to get the cement outside of the seal area.

Press the seal into the gasket cement, starting in one corner and working your way around.

Clean up any gasket cement that seeps out from under the seal with a clean cloth.

Place the door into the hinges and replace the hinge pins. And close the door and make sure the seal is snug and airtight.

However, it is also the most dangerous, and can lead to very serious accidents if not regarded properly. Therefore, ensure your gas stove is kept safe and used in a way that will not cause accidents.

We can know that, gas stoves are generally significantly affected for the purpose of households and also eating places. Why? Gas stoves usage flammable gases such like liquefied petroleum gas propane natural gas as well as butane. With gas stoves heat submission is without a doubt more even when compared with electrical stove and wood stove. At the same time heat accuracy is as well even more exact in gas stoves when compared with others.

Firstly, most gas stoves have a pilot light that automatically lights the gas when you turn it on. But, these sometimes fail and, if this is not noticed, you can be left with gas pouring out into your kitchen. So make sure the gas stove lit, or will cause possible explosions.

Secondly, check your stove regularly for leaks.

Wood stove sees me growing

Even now, I can clearly remember as a kid warming up to a fireplace at night and early in the morning. Now living in the south, the winter's so harsh and the summers are a bit longer. So we seldom use the burning stoves. Even this, there is still a multi fuel stove in the house I live.

I seemly have a special affection on the wood burner. Every time when I saw a picture of modern wood stove in of plane magazines, it brought me back to my childhood. It is not due to its style, but dancing flames of inset stove. I think that, maybe, I’ve treat it as one of friends. Because besides my parents, and my brothers, it is the “only person” that sees me growing. Wood stove sees me growing.

In the harsh winter, do you use the stove, the wood stove, gas stove, electricity stove or the multi fuel stoves? For me, I love the wood burning stoves. On my usual time, I will sit around the stove to watch TV program or do my homework. This reminds me that when I was a child in primary or junior school, it is quite cold. And my grandma will fire a lighter in cast iron fireplaces. Due to the small size and moveable function, grandmother often move the fireplace beside me as she worries about that I’m fearful the coldness.

I love wood fireplace. It’s like a friend in my life.

Various Usages Of Wood Ashes

Three various types of wood stove/fireplace

For a homeowner, you should know clearly about your furniture, home heating appliances, even everything at home. You should know where your children’s bag, slippers, your husband’s wallet, briefcase is. I think that this is every housewife should know. And I also think that this is his or her duties.

For the heating appliance maybe be used in the kitchen, there are actually 3 various types of wood stove/fireplace you should be clear before you plan to purchase it.

1. Simple wood stove of cast iron stoves on a heat resistant hearth with a pipe out the back or top for smoke. They are getting pretty complicated now to keep the particle matter out of the air. The most efficient use of wood for heating a house.

2. A fireplace, usually of brick, is usually built as part of the house when the house was built. They can have just screens to keep sparks out of the room or they can have glass doors to keep all the warm air in the room for going up the chimney. At this time, you can have purchase an inset stove and install it into the fireplace. This is the least efficient use of wood and the poorest to heat even the room it is located in. however, if you didn’t have a handy fireplace, you can consider buying a free standing wood stove and then hire a professional installer to help you install.

3. A fireplace insert is a wood burning stoves that is built to slide into the fireplace. It is all metal and is just as efficient as a free standing wood stove but it can be hard to find an insert for some fireplaces. Also because they must fit into the existing fireplace they frequently are too small to efficiently heat the whole house.

Catalytic Wood Stoves And Non Catalytic Wood Stoves

Catalytic Wood Stoves And Non Catalytic Wood Stoves

This is my first time to hear of the catalytic wood stove. What is the catalytic wood stove? Versus the catalytic wood stove, there is the non catalytic wood stove. So what is the so-called catalytic wood stove and non catalytic wood stove, two major types of technology that are being used in the new Certified EPA standards stoves.

As we all know that, nowadays, more and more people are returning to the wood stove to heat their home or cooking the food. With all the advanced technology and science available on wood burning stoves, wood heat has become ever more affordable source of heat.

For the two types of stoves, catalytic wood stove and non catalytic wood stove, the two major methods used are the secondary combustion method and the catalytic converter method. Each technology has advantages and disadvantages. The basic premise is that smoke is nothing but unburned gases and particles, which these gases and particles have been proven to be harmful to human kind’s health.

A type of wood stove in which the smoky exhaust is passed through a coated ceramic honeycomb inside the stove where the smoke gases and particles ignite and burn. Catalytic stoves were introduced to comply with a 1988 EPA regulation that set mandatory smoke emission limits for wood stoves of 4.1 grams of smoke per hour for catalytic stoves and 7.5 grams per hour for non-catalytic stoves. Catalytic stoves are able to produce long, even heat output.

While non catalytic stoves, we can call it for short, non-cats can't match the even heat output of catalytic stoves, their owners can enjoy watching the beautiful fire they create. The baffle and some other internal parts of a non-catalytic stove will need replacement from time to time as they deteriorate with the high heat of efficient combustion.

Therefore, the goal of the clean air act is to remove these gases and particles from wood burning stoves and other solid fuel burning appliances before they are spewed into the atmosphere in the form of smoke. The concept of the new high tech log burning stoves incorporate is to burn these pollutants before they leave the stove.

In many instances, shopping on the Internet is a quick and easy choice. Sometimes it enables you to do things that otherwise would be impossible for you, or can save you time, trouble and money -- lots of it.

There are some situations you can take shopping online into account as following:

The first situation, you know exactly what you want, and you want to get it over with -- with a minimum of hassle and time. For instance, you want to buy a wood stove before the cold winter’s coming. You don't want to spend an hour or more driving to a physical store and going through the usual routine there; and, if the stove model you want or like is out of stock at the first store you go to, you don't want to have to trek to another and another of multi burning stoves, or wait weeks for delivery.

Second situation, you need to buy something that is very expensive (a car or a house). You have to comparison shop because you aren't fabulously wealthy. But you'd like to do it as quickly and effectively as possible.

Factors to be considered while planning to buy a stove

A few factors to be considered while planning to buy a stove

If you are planning on purchasing a wood stove in this fall, or you want to replace the old wood burner at your home, here are a few factors to be considered while planning to buy a stove.

Buy quality. This will guarantee it is durable. Here, a quick way to find out if you are buying a durable wood burner or fireplace is to look at the material thickness and the overall weight of the product. Most wood stoves available today are quite decent - and, in effect, most are even better than that!

Buying a wood stove is not like buying a sports car where you look for small and light to give you better performance. A heavier built stove will indicate durable long lasting construction which is exactly what you want in a wood burning product.

Moreover, consider the stove materials, as most shoppers will soon discover, there are three popular stoves with various materials:
a. Steel stoves
b. Cast iron stoves
c. Soapstone stoves
Choose one you like and also in the range of your budget. Be aware that in the world of stoves, money spent DOES NOT equal longevity nor extra efficiency (in most cases). It is more comparable to the world of automobiles, where a budget car can last as long or longer than a top of the line model. When you spend more in the stove market, you are usually doing so for style and extra features such as enamel, top loading, larger glass area, blowers, etc.

The last factor I believe that you would consider, especially for women, that is the style of stoves for sale. They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and it also may be in the wallet! However, style is a major consideration in most stove purchases. The stove is being installed in a living space, and so becomes a piece of furniture that is seen by you, your family and your guests.

Tips And Advice For Your Wood Stove

Nowadays., with home heating bills smoldering through the roof, it’s no wonder that many homeowners are contemplating a wood stove to help handle some or all of their home heating needs.

However, unfortunately, wood burning appliances still pose a danger if common sense safety precautions are ignored. It's important to follow a few simple tips and advice for your wood stove when building home fires. Here’s a quick look at some key steps you can take to reduce the likelihood of a fire.

Firstly, find a professional wood burning stoves installer to install. Few homeowners have the technical "know-how" to properly install a woodstove, inset stove or other wood burning appliance, and fewer still understand all of the pertinent building code requirements in their community. Furthermore, installation errors in a wood burning appliance rarely prevent it from "working." This can all too easily leave a homeowner with a false sense of security—until it’s too late.

Then, in your daily life, keep the stove or fireplace clean. A clogged chimney or a fireplace that is coated in residue will lead to a smoky and possibly dangerous fire. And keep the fire under control. Building a fire that is too large for your fireplace or wood stove is not only wasteful; it's also dangerous. As large fires can get out of control quickly and can also cause cracks in your chimney. Start with small logs and add to your fire gradually.

What’s more, shield your fire. Grates and screens placed across the front of the fire will prevent errant sparks from igniting your furniture at home or causing burns. And monitor your fire. Don't ever leave a fire burning without someone in attendance. The last but not least, burn only approved materials.

Not so much because of the style of the stove but seeing the flames it seemed so inviting.

Sitting around the wood stove, listening to the cracking of wood, watching the dancing flames, it is such a cool, romantic thing.

Now, it is quite cold in my office. How I want a wood stove at present. But I am just imagining. Our company would not buy a stove in our office. It will take too much money on cast iron stoves if every room is installed one. Other colleagues say that, warm atmosphere in an office will make a person lazy.

Ways Of Improving Old Wood Stoves’ Efficiency

When a wood burning stove become old and it can’t be more efficient than previous, what should you do? Most homeowners would concern this problem very much. In effect, you can find some ways to make your wood burning stoves more efficient to capture more heat from every piece of wood that is burned.

Here are some suggestions and tips for YOU.

Firstly, use a fan to circulate the heat. As we all known that, old wood-burning stoves just radiate heat into the area where they reside. If now, you use a fan, it can push the heat around the room, distributing the warm air to make the stove a much more efficient heating device. This is a good advice for you. You’d better to think over.

Secondly, burn hard woods instead of soft woods. Softwoods like pine take up the same amount of space as a hardwood like oak but burn faster.Moreover, burn seasoned dried firewood, because wet firewood uses its own heat to dry the wood and loses efficiency in the process.

Thirdly, keep the vents open to allow a cleaner and hotter burn. An ideal burn can be checked at the chimney. If there is a pillowing of smoke from the chimney, the burn is incomplete and you are wasting fuel and efficiency. A slight wisp of smoke or no smoke at all is a sign of a complete and hot, efficient burn.

Then, don't burn garbage, plastic or anything other than wood in an old wood stove. These items can dampen the flames, release a lot of ash and deposit creosote in the chimney.

Next, start the fire in the wood stove with small pieces of kindling.

I hope that these ways or suggestions can be helpful to improve the efficiency of wood stoves.

A Stove Problem

“I think the cost of stove is too high for my blood and the lack of installers in my area, however, I am really considering putting in multi burning stoves to my house.” A few days ago, I saw such a question on the internet.

And I also saw another question, “I've always wanted a stove. I'm looking at different methods and different locations of installation.”

For me, I have a stone fireplace and I've heard of folks using a wood stove inside with a heat-based fan to shoot some of the heat into the room, however, I still like to use the fireplace for decorative heat. I've also considered if it's possible to install a wood stove next to the fireplace and simply run the flue into the chimney. I don’t know whether this is legal, safe, or possible.

What I've seen my friend do in his house, he has a wood stove in the unfinished basement with a venting tile to the kitchen area directly above the wood stove. Then if I was to vent another portion of the house, the hot air from the wood stove will heat my basement, dry out the basement, Then I have an open vent somewhere else, the cold air will drop into the basement and I'll get this convection.

I think the basement idea is the way to go. If I was to put the stove in the basement, I'd simply run the flue through the upper foundation to the outside.

So the suggestion I gave two the persons above is to purchase a wood burner, which save you much fuel and is environmentally friendly.

The importance of wood burning stoves

Today, a number of fireplaces are available in the market from which you can pick out the most appropriate one for you. The most basic fireplaces are three, they are, wood burning, electric and gas fireplaces. Each type of fireplace has been designed to meet the specific requirements of the customers. However, when there is no electricity, you can’t use the electric fireplaces. And for the gas fireplaces, their cost is much high.

Therefore, after comparing with the gas and electric stoves, wood stove is relatively cheaper. It is the most common fireplace and extensively favored for various reasons. There is nothing in this world that could be a substitute for watching dancing flames, crackling sound of the wood and soothing aroma of wood burning. This is also another major cause of continuous demand of a wood burning fireplace. What a funny reason. I also think so. Furthermore, it is environmentally friendly.

Moreover, it is another fact that wood burning fireplace needs most regular maintenance cleanliness and care. Even this extra work associated with the wood burning fireplace has not slowed down its growing demand because majority of users also enjoy building and maintaining fire as much as they enjoy watching the dancing flames of the fire.

wood burning stoves may keep you warm and cozy in the shivering cold of winter, but they may also be hazardous to your health, especially if you have certain health conditions that place you among those in a high risk group. So be careful when you’re using it.

Energy saving create an efficient home

Saving energy in your home does not always require a planned project. There are numerous steps you can take right now to help to improve the efficiency of your home, especially the stove efficiency. I think that these are good for the homeowners. Some of these tips may seem ridiculously simple, but every bit of energy saved helps. Give them a try, and you may be pleasantly surprised when your next utility bill comes.

For the stove, black wood burning stoves conduct the most heat. Shiny stoves look good but have less efficiency. You also should know that, the more the stovepipe is kept inside, the greater the heat radiates into the home, increasing the overall stove effectiveness. And newer pellet stoves burn more efficiently with processed wood pellets that enter the combustion chamber automatically through electronic controls. While steady, these pellet stoves shut off during power outages.

Moreover, when we are using wood stove, we should care about ours safety. Wood stoves radiate heat that can cause fires. They also launch sparks and cinders that can ignite fires. Furthermore, hot ashes can also fall out of the chimney and cause a fire. However, most wood stoves have built-in safety features and installation considerations that prevent these problems. Radiation shields can prevent heat from scorching nearby objects.

In addition, there is another recommendation of energy savings, that is, use your microwave instead of the stove, which many homemakers said. They pointed that, if you need to boil water, use your microwave instead of a stove top burner. The microwave is much more efficient and does not waste energy as ambient heat. If you need warm water, try running it from the tap until it is hot enough. If you still need warmer water you can then put the tap water in the microwave. The microwave is also more efficient for heating food. Right, at once, one of my friends said that, he ever boiled the instant noodles in the microwave. Yes, microwave make almost none of its energy is wasted. So try to use it as much as possible.
