Wood Stove SMOKES, how to fix it, Renovated REMOTE TINY HOUSE

My wood stove has started to smoke a lot and it needs to be fixed, we will fix it together in this video. This cleaning applies to all wood stoves.
To clean your chimney and stove and eliminate smoke, follow these steps:
Disconnect and remove the stovepipe from the chimney.
Clean the stovepipe with a stiff brush.
Check the chimney from the roof for any blockages and remove them.
Vacuum the chimney to remove soot and creosote.
Reinstall the stovepipe and check for a good draft.
Clean the inside of the stove with a stove cleaner and brush.
Remove any debris or ash from the stove.
Reinstall stove grates and glass.
Check stove seals and replace them if needed.
Remember to always follow the manufacturer's instructions and safety precautions. It may also be necessary to hire a professional chimney sweeper to clean the chimney if there is excessive build-up.

The black ashes are called soot. Pronounced sut in most English dialects.

Love your cats Robert! 😀

There was a very interesting comment below by chillipesto that perhaps the inverter could have cumulatively sucked up enough soot from the air inside the cabin to short out somewhere.

Looking at the soot deposit in the corner of your roof above the stove over the last 6 months, perhaps it might be time to engineer a more effective chimney

Add a 36 inche length to you chimney height and it should pull more of a draw preventing smoke

You definitely need an external clean out in your chimney. that would keep the mess outside. The black ash is called Soot, pronounced like Foot.

[chillipesto]

I wonder if the soot dust (carbon) was sucked in via the inverter fan! It's highly conductive and can create short circuits.

Thats a lot of creosote! You risk getting a chimney fire. You should get a Chimney Brush that attaches to a cordless drill. I have one that goes 30 feet.

The "black ashes" are called "soot"

You need to burn hardwood. Burning soft woods like pine contribute to excessive buildup of soot & creosote. In places that have chimneys, burn hardwoods. In open outdoor fires it is acceptable to burn soft woods. Also, some soft wood will make your food taste bad because of the resin in the wood.

Can you walk through the forest near you & get dead fall wood? That might be a good way to get free hardwood to burn.

Creosote is the name of the build up in the chimney.

Deshalb sind die Schornsteine in Deutschland mit einer Rußkammer gebaut. Aber alles Gut. Mit Staubsauger gehts besser.
