We have a BIS Nova...this is our 3rd season with it. We burned about 2 1/2 cords last season...mostly ash and some dead elm.
I just cleaned the chimney yesterday. I got somewhere between 1/2 and a full coffee can of soot. Most of it was powdery, and there were some crusty flakes that come off easily. Seems like most of the buildup was down closer to the firebox. Not much in the top 1/2 of the pipe.
How much soot do you get from your stove?
