I have a regular Buck inserted into a masonry fireplace/chimney. I does not have a liner. I have sealed everything as best I can with hi heat silicone and insulation I bought from a wood stove salesman. When I get the stove real hot, it smells up the house. there is no smoke inside but there is some smell. could it be the bricks? I really cant describe the smell. silicone, gaskets, paint? does anyone else have issues with this?
thanks
