venting
Do not burn any fuel other than wood, such as charcoal,
which can cause increased carbon monoxide production or
overfiring. Never use highly volatile substances in your stove,
such as gasoline, which could cause an explosion.
When solid fuels are burned completely, they produce water
and carbon dioxide. However, in long slow burns, a substan
-
tial amount of carbon monoxide may be produced. If allowed
to build up, carbon monoxide (which is odorless) can prove
fatally poisonous. Proper ventilation and draft will prevent this
from happening. If you smell smoke, turn up the air control
lever setting, and thoroughly ventilate your dwelling. During
future burns, be careful not to overload the stove with fuel,
so you will not be tempted to constantly operate at a low air
control setting.
Other causes of poor ventilation or draft are icing, exhaust
fans, a blocked outside air inlet, and room air starvation. If
your stove is sluggish and you get occasional odor, check
these possibilities and increase the air flow in your home.
