My BEECH burns hotter than a BEACH!!!!!!!!!!!

[JustWood]

Installed an 18-TR late last winter for shoulder season burns . The furnace is just too much in 30 degree weather. Fired it up tonight for the first time with a quarter load of 3-4 year old beech and HOLY SCHNIKEYS is it hot in here (30 outside)!! Flue damper shut all the way and shes screamin'. Could I possibly partly close off the air wash holes with fiberglass to slow this thing down?

Check all your door gasket and ash pan for leaks. Maybe you need a pipe damper.

3 or 4 year oil beech is just about as good as it gets!

Mix your inferno wood with some dare I say it "Worthless Pine" to cool the stove down...

or stop soaking your wood in used motor oil and such ;-P hehehe
