Default Wood Burning Stove - Glass doors always smoked up!

We've got a Stovax (Blenheim) wood burning stove which was rebuilt a
couple of years ago.

Whenever we use it the inside of the glass doors are covered in soot
within only a couple of hours use meaning you can't see the "romantic"
orange flames nor see when you need to put another log on it.

Most other people I know with wood burning stoves say they only need
to clean their glass every couple of months or so - not every day like
I do!


I don't believe them. I know someone who claimed that - with a super duper
all singing all dancing modern stove with bells but when we stayed with

them
I caught her cleaning the glass in a morning ...

I read some literature on woodburners a little while back. Some claim to
have
specially designed airflow so that cool clean air is draughted over the
inside of the
glass so as to keep the soot off. Whether it works or not I don't know, but
does
Sovax make such a claim for your model?
