Just wanted to let eveyone on here know that your thoughts and ideas were most helpful. We did have a sever draft issue with the stove. My chimney guy came out today and opened up from a 6" flue to an 8" flue cleaned the chimney and all that. Got the cresote factory gone and also found my blower had a homemade draft control on the back...and old coffee can lid with a bold attatched that was closed. I had no idea it was there as it is between the wall of the stove on the back of the blower. Opened it up and it was like a blast furnace. Wish I'd known the blasted thing was there from day one would have saved me a chimney cleaning but the 8" flue tile was needed. I'll keep you all posted as to how the heating is going got to give the flue cement a 24 hour dry time should be back up and running tomrrow afternoon. Thanks for all your ideas and suggestions.
