The stack was lower than my house and it would set off a smoke detector in my attic The town elected to work with him and after he put in a 30' extension on his stack it became far less of an issue Obviously making your home tighter will reduce the smoke getting inside If you have a chimney and are not using it, that is logical thing to seal.
If you are getting smoke in the house or you stove just don’t seem to be burning like should Check the door seal and latch for a tight fit Check the ash pan for shut tight and latched if all doors seals are good and latched Most pellet stove are negative air

78 yo house, 2 ft thick uninsulated masonry walls, full daylight basement with walkin on north side (bummer), massive concrete foundation with basement stairs, laundry room floor, and two porches all poured along with the foundation The front of the house faces south, but the south. The house is fairly well insulated with good windows It runs fairy stable around 60 on second floor
I run first floor at around 65 This is with temps in the teens at night and twentees durring the day I would like tolike it warmer but wood supply and homemade boiler can only do so much Jensen wood boiler 250 gal storage 1970 c30 dump 1200.
My house is approx 2200 sq feet of livable space with the unfinished basement adding another 500 sq feet
What size stove might i need Do any of you have one installed in the basement Do you think a pellet stove will put out enough heat to help me I really do not have a spot to install it on the main level of the house.
Cheaper than many wood stoves a furnace that can heat an entire house Anybody have any experience using one or know of them in use You can try bracing it to the house by attaching steel brackets of some sort to the chimney and structure of the house to buy you a year, maybe, but even then i wouldnt want a couple 2x4's to hold up thousands of pounds of brick and masonry Is there just that one flue in the chimney?
