To start this back up on a cold start, I light a fire in the oven chamber, to get a good draft going.

The masonry heater has about 20 feet of masonry channel to absorb heat before the smoke hits the chimney. Part of those channels cause the smoke to travel down.

A good draft pulls the smoke down so it can eventually leave via the chimney.

After the heater is warmed up I'll light the main wood charge in the firebox.

A normal fire is about 40 lbs of wood at a time.
