We are getting a brand new stove installed tomorrow, it is a steel model similar to the Englander 13 and it is replacing an old smoke dragon cast iron stove. The installer took a look at my chimney and didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but I'm wondering if I'm going to have draft problems with the new stove. It's a short chimney, outside and only 14 feet from ground to top, so the actual flue length from the top of the stove to the top of the flue will only be maybe 11 or 12 feet. It's 8x8 clay, no liner, and it has a 2 foot stainless steel extension on the top which brings the total length to about 16 ft top to bottom. Our old smokey never gave me any problems with smoke in the house, it always burned well (smoked up the whole outdoors though) but I'm wondering if this new epa stove will be more picky and not draft as well. I know its not a great setup but I really can't afford a liner or a mason to extend the chimney another 3 feet. I guess it's pretty much going to be a "try it and see" thing for me, but I'd like to hear what suggestions y'all might have for me to improve this setup on the cheap.
