A damper is a vital component for regulating the airflow through your chimney. By adjusting the external handle, you can easily control the rate of combustion. Open it up for a roaring fire, dial it back for a slower burn, or close it to stop combustion completely when the stove is no longer in use.

Because collapsible stoves are designed to pack down, they are not completely airtight. Instead, they rely heavily on a strong "draw" or suction up through the chimney to operate cleanly. This upward chimney suction is what pulls the exhaust safely outside, preventing smoke from leaking out of the stove's seams and into your room or tent.

Don't Choke the Airflow! While the damper gives you excellent control over your heat output, it is crucial to make sure the stove always has enough airflow.

• Avoid "choking" the air passage too much. If you close the damper too far and prevent enough air from flowing out of the chimney, the stove will lose its upward suction.

• Without that suction, the smoke will be forced to find other exits, causing it to leak out of the stove body and into your living space. Always ensure your damper is open enough to maintain a proper draft!
