Quadra fire wood stove filling room smoke all of the sudden

[PNWjoe]

Hi all,

As the title states. Stove worked great last week. All the sudden last night at startup smoke started exiting from the back and sides into the house.

Any guidance on how to track down the issue would be great.

Thanks very much in advance

The most likely issue is that the chimney cap screen is plugging up. Check that first. If there is none, then get the flue cleaned asap.

How well seasoned is the wood being burned?
