Clean Wood
Wood stoves not only look gorgeous, but they are also a great way to warm your home. Therefore, they have to be maintained properly to ensure that they operate smoothly and efficiently. This can be a little difficult particularly when it comes to keeping the glass clean, but a few simple steps can make all the difference.
First foremost, it is essential to only use well-seasoned wood on your wood stove. It should be cut and stored for at least one year prior to burning to reduce the amount of smoke. The burning of unseasoned cheap wood burning stoves could cause the flue to overheat, which could lead to the fire bursting out of control and sparking an explosion in the chimney.
Only burn clean wood on your stove. Avoid burning paper and other non-indoor wood burning stove products such as plastics or rubber because they can emit toxic fumes that are bad for your health.

One last thing to do is to remove every so often any birds who have made their home of your chimney. Seagulls can be a problem because they can be a nuisance to chimneys during summer. This could cause all kinds of debris to be deposited in the flue and cause damage to your stove. You can add various bird guards and spikes on your chimney to stop this.
Paper Burning
Burning paper is a simple method to get the fire going, but the wrong kind of paper could cause dangerous smoke. Some types of paper such as gift wrap and glossy magazines contain harmful chemicals that could release toxic fumes when they burn. To keep your home safe from creating an unsafe environment, only burn clean paper in your wood burner.
If you have only a few pieces of paper to burn, you might consider using a tub. Set a stack over the tub and light a corner wood burner. The water will catch the embers and prevent them from igniting nearby trees or grass. If you are worried about the smell of burning paper, place a bowl of vinegar or baking soda nearby to neutralize the odors.
Start with a base made of small twigs, or newspaper that has been shredded. This will ensure that the newspaper burns properly. Then add 3-4 medium-sized logs to the flame and allow them to start to burn. Then, place the paper on the top. The paper will begin to burn quickly, so you should monitor the flame closely.
It is recommended to burn your paper outside on the day there isn't any wind. A strong gust of wind could blow embers across the grass or onto your home. Inhaling the smoke from burning paper could cause breathing problems.
You can also use paper to burn on a BBQ grill, but it is best to use this method if you only have some sheets to burn. If you have a grilling surface, you can take it off it and then burn the paper directly on the charcoal.
Before you start burning paper, ensure that your wood burner is functional and that the fire pit has been cleared of branches, twigs and other flammable materials. It is recommended to have a fire extinguisher within reach in case of emergency. Contact your local government and homeowners association to determine whether it is permitted for you to burn paper outside.
Safety Precautions
Wood-burning stoves are an excellent source of comfort and enjoyment, but only if you utilize them in a safe manner. While it may seem obvious to some but the reality is that a lot of people fail to follow simple safety precautions.
Check that your stove is properly sealed, and any pipes that lead to the outside are secured. Also, ensure that children and pets are kept away from the stove.
Ensure that any paper and trash is not thrown into the firebox. The burning of these items could cause the chimney and fireplace to overheat. They can also produce creosote, an ablaze hazard that has to be maintained regularly.
Make sure to check the smoke alarms and test them every month. Installing carbon monoxide alarms can also save lives. They are also affordable.
Always keep a fire extinguisher within reach in the event of an emergency. Never build a large stack of logs. Only burn dry, seasoned wood. A pile of logs burning together can result in incomplete combustion, which can increase CO emissions. It is also essential to monitor the fire, and if it gets out of control, extinguish it immediately.
When you have finished using your stove make sure that the fire is out and that all combustible materials are removed from the area around the fireboxes as well as flue pipes. The clearance requirements will vary depending on the model of your stove and how you intend to install your stove in your home.
Take into consideration a DEFRA approved model if you intend to install your wood-burning stove in a smoke-controlled space. These stoves are designed to work in smoke-controlled areas.

To prevent smoke from blowing back into the room, you should remove any combustible objects such as curtains and furniture. Also, you must install a carbon monoxide and smoke alarm in your shed. Last but not least, ensure that the shed has adequate ventilation. It is crucial to regularly inspect your stove for safety.
It is a smart idea to purchase a wood stove that has EPA certification.
