    I am off. Need to rebuild the door glass and rope seals on the wood stove today.
    I have an air leak on the glass insert and im getting runaway fires.

    I dont worry when it goes over 600 but it will go to 700 or more if i fill the box up full.
    Ive been filling about 2/3 full till i get it resealed.

    Can see the air leak on the lower left

    The rope around our door leaks like a sieve. We are able to control the fire with the inline glue damper installed right above the stove. Did me, the damper cost about as much as a new rope. And the damper won’t need to get replaced every couple of years. We may lose some efficiency but it is not readily apparent.

    Is an in-line damper a good thing to have “just in case”?

    I have one on my setup. I dont use it but I figure it's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. I look at it as an emergency brake.

    Two ways to stop a run away burn:

    1) Open the stove door wide open and close the Damper.

    2) Extreme case use a railway striker fuse, ignite it, throw it in the stove shut the air completely down. Good for killing a chimney fire as well. The sulfur in the fuse snuffs out the O2 and smothers the burn.
