What to do if my Invicta AARON Wood stove has an uncontrolled burn?
- J
  Julie EllisAug 9, 2025
  An uncontrolled or short burn in your Invicta Wood stove can stem from several issues. First, ensure the door is tightly closed; if not, replace the gaskets, including those around the glass. Excessive draft could also be the culprit; check the installation and consider installing a stovepipe damper if the draft exceeds 0.1 wc. Other causes include an extra-long or oversized chimney, which may require shortening the chimney, relining it to the proper diameter, or installing stovepipe dampers. High winds or a hilltop location might also contribute, suggesting the installation of a chimney cap.

Why does my Invicta AARON Wood stove smoke when I use it?
- E
  Elizabeth HortonAug 15, 2025
  If your Invicta Wood stove is smoking, several factors could be the cause. It may be due to your operating technique; try slightly cracking the door one minute before fully opening it. A cold chimney or reverse draft can also cause this; preheat the chimney when starting a fire and briefly open a window in the room. Other potential causes include a blocked, oversized, or undersized chimney, a chimney that's too short, air infiltration into the chimney, not burning proper fuel (ensure cordwood is seasoned and dry), or having more than one appliance connected to the flue. Examine the chimney and stovepipe for blockage, creosote accumulations, and ensure all other appliances are disconnected and openings sealed.

How to increase heat output of my Invicta AARON?
- S
  Sean KelleyAug 21, 2025
  If your Invicta Wood stove isn't producing enough heat, consider these factors: use only air-dried wood, preferably dried for at least one year, and opt for wood with a high Btu content if available. A cold exterior chimney can also reduce heat; reline or insulate it. Check for leaks in the stovepipe or chimney, and replace them with a pre-fabricated insulated chimney system or a properly sized masonry chimney if necessary. Ensure your house is well-insulated by adding insulation, using energy-efficient windows, caulking windows, and sealing openings. Empty the ash pan more frequently and avoid using poor quality or green wood to increase the efficiency of burns.

What to do if my Invicta AARON experiences back-puffing?
- K
  Kristen LewisAug 27, 2025
  If your Invicta Wood stove is experiencing back-puffing or gas explosions, it could be due to your operating technique. Try slightly cracking the door one minute before fully opening it, and keep it fully open for a few minutes after reloading. A chimney down-draft could also be the cause; consider installing a chimney cap. Excessive ash build-up can also contribute; empty the ash pan more frequently, increase the efficiency of burns, and avoid using poor quality or green wood.

Why is the finish blistering on my Invicta Wood stove?
- C
  Cameron PonceSep 2, 2025
  Blistering of the finish on your Invicta Wood stove can occur due to over-firing the stove. Monitor stove temperatures and use only seasoned wood. Excessive draft may also be a factor; check the draft and consider using a damper. Operate the stove at a low burn range.
