Is your baffle baffling you?

Are you getting no heat from your heater no matter how much wood or coal you put on it? This can be a common problem but easily solved.  There is a good chance your baffle is not doing the job and  has possibly seen better days.   Troubleshooting for this problem is relatively simple you need to look into the fire box and look where the smoke would exit up the flu,  if there is broken bricks or holes or fractures in the metal plate [ baffle] that could well be the problem and it would need to be replaced.  All baffles are not the same some are brick, some cast  or mild steel, and some made of promo board so the price of baffles differs, depending on what material is used.   Continual use of a heater with an inefficient  baffle can cause serious problems, e.g.  over-firing which will cause permanent damage to the interior casting of your heater and the flu.   Below is an example of a burnt out baffle from a woodsman rmf

Property is your savings and house is your life, it may be a non living being, but the walls and rooms are combined with your sharing, feelings and happiness. So such a house needs to be valued the lot and some may not take care of the house, once they build the house. It is not good and our need to be remodeled once in a year either through many process such as painting or artistic works and more.
