Smoky solid fuel Rayburn
2 Answers
We converted our old oil-fired Rayburn Royal to solid fuel this year because of the high price of oil, and we had access to plenty of wood.
Its worked well and kept our little cottage warm, but only drawback is that it can be very smoky when we build it up for the night and smoke is escaping at times around the hotplate on the top although we renewed the asbestos rope stuff. The chimney flue is swept regularly so we know its not blocked, and there does seem to be a good draw to keep it going.
Does any one have any ideas on how to prevent the smoke escaping through the top of the Rayburn.
