Cast-Iron Stove Pipe Damper - Do I need a damper in my wood stove pipe?

The 6" Cast-Iron Stovepipe Damper features a spring-loaded, removable shaft and a versatile design that can be used with any wood stove! With the proper use of a damper, you can manipulate the flames and heat by controlling the airflow into the firebox by opening and closing the damper. This keeps your house at optimal temperatures and your wood consumption to a minimum. Optimal temperatures vary by house.

How to Set Damper - Should fireplace or wood stove damper be open or closed?

As a rule, the "operating" mode for a damper is about one-fourth of the way open. This keeps smoke and air flowing through the firebox and out the chimney. The smaller the opening, the more smoldering and less fire you will have. This is ideal for heating long term.

Should the damper be open all the way?

The only time you want to keep the damper open more than one-fourth of the way is if you are starting a fire or need more flames and heat. So, increase your woodstove efficiency of your stove by purchasing a Stovepipe Damper.
