Previous articles have let slip that the issues are often about running

Why would anyone run a woodburner with the door open?


To poke it or put new logs in.

(The article was saying that every time you open the door a gust of
particulates comes into the room)

There shouldn't be "a gust of particulates" if the stove is drawing
properly, air should be sucked *into* it.
