Amazing how 2 diffrent owners can go from a creosote plant smoke dragon stove . To a clean burning almost zilch creosote with diffrent chimney . And aparently dryer wood? My grandfather owned this 80's built stove before me and i rember growing up the pouring smoke from his masonry chimney . The leakage and stinch of creosote how that thing never turned into a volcano up the stack i'll never know. Only time i get noticable smoke from chimney is when the thermo controled draft door shuts . And yet that not like i rember seeing years ago from the same stove. Now when i fuel it on coal well yeah then she smokes LOL

Yea, and also having the air setting adjustment on the ash door flap closed up tight never helped any with the excess smoke either. i had a heck of a time getting it freed up . i belive factory pain had it stuck now its easliy adjusted and is letting air in so / in theroy its not an air tight stove
