Hi all,
I need some knowledgable people's help...
I'm in my first season of heating with wood, using a new Fireview stove, and although I've done my best to operate it according to the manual, it seems that it got too hot. Failed gaskets and cracked cement all throughout. Ordered the gasket kit and started replacing them all, then realized that there are several gaskets not in the kit that need replacing- under the air duct cover, and between the combustor pan and the front and back of the stove. Maybe more. Most of the cement that seals the joints was cracked and falling off. Major symptom I had was inability to control the fire with the damper. Is there anyone here with experience in this kind of thing? Thanks very much!
