I just noticed my chimney clean out door was open in the basement. It looks like my shovel fell and smacked the door just right so it opened. :grrr: Is that bad??????
 
Close that door and if it is not sealing well, tape it up with some duct tape. Then try your stove. I suspect you'll see a significant difference in the way it burns. Draft should be significantly better.
