    Why is the fire in my Clarke Stove difficult to start and keeps going out?

      There are several reasons why your Clarke Stove fire might be difficult to start or keep burning: * The wood may be green, too damp, or of poor quality. Use recommended fuel for best results. * The logs might be too large. Use small, dry kindling when lighting the fire, and split logs to maintain it. * There may be air starvation. Open the air control to allow more air into the stove. * There could be insufficient draught. Check that the flue is not obstructed and sweep it if necessary.

      If you're experiencing smoke spillage when opening the door of your Clarke Stove, here are a few possible causes and solutions: * The chimney may not be tall enough to clear the roof line, so increase the chimney height. * There might be poor sealing of flue-pipe joints. Re-connect the flue or replace the jointing material. * The flue could be partially blocked with soot. Arrange to have the chimney swept. * The house may be too tightly sealed. Ensure a fresh air supply is reaching the stove.

      If your Clarke Stove fire is burning too quickly, it could be due to: too much draught. Make sure the air control is closed. Also, avoid continuously burning small wood, sticks, carpentry offcuts, plywood etc.

    Why does my Clarke Stove smoke when lighting up?

      Sean DayAug 23, 2025
      Your Clarke Stove might smoke when lighting up due to a cold flue duct. Try burning paper and kindling wood to increase the heat. Another reason could be that the room is at negative air pressure to the outside. In houses equipped with mechanical ventilation, open a window until the fire is well established.
