I see what you are saying... Here is exactly what I did.coalnewbie wrote: ↑Mon.

Did you just rerun those pipes or did you change to my configuration? Take off the draft inducer and poke a chimney brush into the stove. Vacuum it out and then blow compressed air into it. That is a long 4" pipe and even if perfectly clean (which it is not) there is a flow resistance. At the very least avoid sharp corners
Let's learn a bit about things here ...

Let's us start from the chimney and work back.
How do you know your chimney is unblocked?
How do you know your black pipe run is unblocked or has to much resistance
How do you know the inside of the stove is clean before the draft inducer?
You think the guy that installed that flue originally was an expert... sorry.
Eagerly waiting your video where I am sure you explain all of these things. My wife says I nag ... she should talk!!!!
I did open this entire horizontal pipe There was some stuff in there ... I did use a brush and a vacuum to remove everything....
After that I did remove the cap from tee and I used the Vacuum to clear the vertical pipe, so I change my Vacuum to blower mode , and I let that blowing for long 10 min to make sure it was clean ... I went outside to make sure I was getting air from the blower and it seems fine...
Well.... maybe I need to give another try to make sure it is 100% clean.
So answering your questions:
How do you know your chimney is unblocked?
I went outside remove everything and when I used the blower I checked how "much air I was getting"
How do you know your black pipe run is unblocked or has to much resistance
As I mentioned, I did put everything apart so I know it is clean ... maybe I should try again to make sure nothing got there since I had the stove running for more than 1 day.
How do you know the inside of the stove is clean before the draft inducer?
I did clean that before start the stove, I did use my Vacuum shop to make sure everything was clean
You think the guy that installed that flue originally was an expert... sorry.
I'm not sure who was the guy that installed it... I got my house in June and it came with the stove... I tried to asked the previous owner about the details who installed it and so on... but I didn't get an answer yet.
I will try to make the video tonight or tomorrow... Let's see what time I will get home today!
