Sweeps chimney which all falls into the grate. He then rakes the back out and then sets the baffle plate back..<br /><br />Just wondering if yours tilts forward like ours?Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07911045617767626806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8491197068002893936.post-58841939936093347672013-04-11T14:37:38.062+01:002013-04-11T14:37:38.062+01:00Halfie,

When I get "puffs" of smoke from the ash tray door it's time to sweep that flue again!Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14502754753792780008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8491197068002893936.post-79400097805115535672013-04-11T13:13:38.512+01:002013-04-11T13:13:38.512+01:00I see you have the same stove as Shadow.

If so, that's entirely appropriate, as, the other day, owing to some freak combination of wind direction and cabin pressure (!) ours suddenly started puffin' vast quantities of smoke from the air inlet/ash tray door. I'd left it off to give a good draught to get the fire going, but somehow the draught came back down the flue. Worryingly - and I've only just thought of this - the smoke alarm didn't go off. Investigation required ...Halfiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00167481543065324357noreply@blogger.com
