Why should I buy or not buy a pipe damper?
Some of you have seen my old cast iron '80s relic with both primary & secondary (door) air flow controls.
Basic 6" single wall back exit elbow staight up setup.
If I can accurately control the infeed then I would think it's more of a hazard than anything; and yes I know it will help the chimney fire scenerio.
I've heard with it you'll burn less wood but create more creosote.
I put this in the hands of the woodstove pro's as to which way I'll go.
