Review of Villager B series stove

great heating system but NEED HELP

Catherine Russell 10 years ago

I'm in need of help, earlier this year I was lucky enough to be given a villager wood burner for my living room, I purchased the flue pipe and a 90 degree angle as I also wanted to be able to use burner to cook. It only took a few hours to fit and since has been heating my 2 bedroom bungalow. BUT the last few days whenever I open the doors to put more wood on my living room has been filling with smoke and smoke alarms going crazy, even when the paddle at the back is open. I do let my burner have a full air wash occasionally but mainly its shut up as wood doesn't burn as fast. Please Help me!!

Stove expert replied: Have you had the chimney swept? Is there an air brick in the room? Leave more air wash to help with the draw. If still having problems suggest getting an installer to check, seems strange that is worked fine and this has now changed so I am sure this can be rectified. Have you got trees near the house that have grown since installing the stove?
