so i fired the stove up for the first time last night and have a few issues. I have a st croix prescott. the first issue is, a smokey smell in the house. I believe i know what the issue is here. When i did my spring cleaning on it, i removed both the room and combustion fans. I couldnt get a new gasket for the combustion fan at the time (dealer was out of them) so i put it back together thinking i would get one before fall. Well i forgot about it and never replaced the gasket. Could this be whats causing the smoke smell in the house?
Second issue is every now and then i see a puff of smoke coming out the vent. Normally on startup it always smokes a good deal then stops. I have about a 10 foot verticle vent and can see the smoke every so often.... not a lot of smoke but enough where its visable. what could be causing this? thanks............
