I have a new Travis 1750 stove that we bought last year to replace our 20 plus year old stove. It is in the basement connected through the basement wall to an outside concrete chimney with a clay liner. I have trouble with strong downdrafts when the stove is not being used, thus have trouble reversing the draft. Once it is going and warmed up it seems to work fine. The dealer we bought the stove from said if we have trouble with draft they suggested installing a liner in the chimney. I have done some research on line and talked to Volka Supply company and they have suggested installing a draft inducer. It seems to make sense to me and the cost is way less then relining the chimney. Does anyone have any experience with a similar situation?
