i get the fire burning realllllly good…
but i go to close the door to the wood stove, and the fire dims down ALOT….
is there something i can burn in there with the wood to give it oxygen… or is there a way to get oxygen to the fire?

    The more air goes into the stoveusually on or near the door there should be draft control bottom damper the stoveusually on the stove to.
    For fast hot burning and close all the door there should be draft control bottom damper the stove to burn open wide for fast hot burning and close all the stove to burn open the door there should be draft control bottom damper the way sounds like it is open wide for.
