~*~vvv~*~ said:LOL! wonder why key dampers have to be added to EPA stoves?
Only in rare instances where pipe exceeds recommended length, causing excess draft that the stove was not designed for.

Thank you for backing my statement.
~*~vvv~*~ said:so the 2ndary air intake doesnt result as a hole into the stove?
Looks like it might not be that rare, correct?Jags said:~*~vvv~*~ said:LOL! wonder why key dampers have to be added to EPA stoves?

Quite frankly being gone for my job and having the wife have a problem with a fire running away from her scares the crap out of me, she ran the old stove with no problem but that stove was easy to run.Jags said:oldspark said:Looks like it might not be that rare, correct?Jags said:~*~vvv~*~ said:LOL! wonder why key dampers have to be added to EPA stoves?

Its not "hens teeth" rare, but is not a real common issue brought up on this board. Now, boxwood stove turning the paint white, overheating, and being uncontrollable. Real high percentage :lol: .
did u read the link? Gulland resorted to blocking the 2ndary air hole. WHY?Jags said:oldspark said:Looks like it might not be that rare, correct?Jags said:~*~vvv~*~ said:LOL! wonder why key dampers have to be added to EPA stoves?

True - but the difference is the "regulated" (i.e. EPA) leaky part.

BeGreen said:Pook, you sayyou don't take JG as gospel, but keep quoting him. Gulland lists that as one of the "options" for a problem situation of too strong draft.
This thread is off on theoretical tangents and not really helping the OP. Please get back on topic or it will have to be closed.

BeGreen said:Putting a key damper and a thermometer on the flue pipe or stove top is a good idea so that you can regulated the stove better and know what temp it is burning at.
bottom line= how does a stove [EPA] that has 2" hole feeding the firebox gonna be more airtight that one that doesnt? put a keydamper on it makes sense, replacing it with EPA stove doesnt. OP may have money issues also?BeGreen said:Pook, you sayyou don't take JG as gospel, but keep quoting him. Gulland lists that as one of the "options" for a problem situation of too strong draft.
