A 15 ft flue is the minimum for many stoves - so too much draft is rather unusual.
Agree with everything stoveliker and others already said, but I have to pick a nit on this particular point. One of my Ashford 30's has about 15 feet of pipe on it, and it does indeed draft too hard. I know this, because I have a manometer and key damper on my
other Ashford 30, and am able to easily observe behavior vs. draft setting on that rig.
It may be unusual for 15 feet to draft too hard on most stoves, but I think it's more common on stoves with a bypass in the ceiling of the firebox, and a pipe positioned directly above that.
Yes, BK spec's 15 feet
minimum, but even this minimal chimney can and will pull too hard on the stove when it gets hot, standing in bypass long enough to get the cat to active.
You'll learn that you do NOT need to wait for the cat probe to indicate active, to close the bypass and achieve light-off. Close that bypass as soon as you meet any combination of the following criteria:
1. Stove flue gas > 600F on flue probe ~ 18 inches above stove.
2. Single wall stove pipe exterior temp > 300F on stove pipe thermometer ~18" above stove.
3. Wood load completely charred over, or burning vigorously.
I would bet it's been 6-7 years since I've (intentionally) waited for the cat probe to actually reach Active threshold before closing the bypass on my stove running 15 feet of pipe. It's totally unnecessary, and hard on your bypass and stovepipe components to do this. BK includes that instruction in their manual as a "sure fire" way to achieve light-off and prevent a stall, for new and novice users, but your experience will quickly push you beyond religious adherence to that rule. Most of the time, my cat starts glowing within 10 seconds of closing the bypass, even though the probe indicates I'm still down in the middle of the "Inactive" region.
