What is wrong with a smoking chimney?
A seriously smoking chimney means that combustion is less than optimum.
There may be a number of reasons for this. If the fire has only just caught on,
or has recently been topped up, some smoke is normal. By opening the door
for a short period, the wood will catch fire quicker and the smoky period will be
shorter.
If you leave the stove door open, and especially if you burn damp wood, the
result will be a lot of smoke. In both cases, the combustion temperature is too
low. This leaves numerous dangerous compounds intact, which means more
deposits in your chimney and more waste into the environment.
What is the influence of soapstone outer finish on the stove?
Soapstone functions as a heat buffer.
Its combination of chalky composition and sedimentary structure means that
soapstone heats up more quickly than other sorts of stone and emits heat more
gradually than other stone.
Soapstone equalise the irregularity that is a characteristic of burning wood (heat
radiated is initially double; later half the average).
However, this means that a soapstone stove has a longer warm-up period.
However, it will continue to give off heat for longer.
The soapstones are not like the ones in the brochure. Is this right?
Soapstone is a type of stone that is found in mountain walls (it is sawn out).
Depending on the place in the mountain, the structure may vary. It may be more
or less porous, its structure may be wild or calm. This means that the colour and
finish may also vary. Stone quarried in the past will thus look different to stone
quarried today.
What should I do if the wood does not catch fire?
This probably means that the wood is damp. Remove the wood and replace it
with dry wood. If necessary, make a fire with wood briquettes. They are always
dry (they have a moisture content of <10%).
