Why are gases and smoke entering the room when the door is opened?

The most likely reason for this is that your flue is clogged and may require sweeping.

Other possible causes:

  • You could have a very cold flue temperature. Allow initial start up fire to warm flue pipes.
  • Loading door opened during maximum degassing of fuel. Wait until flames disappear.
