I get more heat with the stove door open
If the door is open then the burning temperature actually drops. The combustion is not as efficient and unburned fuel vapours are now lost to the chimney.
Burning pine or softwoods on my fire is bad for the chimney
It’s just not true, all wood is bad for the chimney if wet or if it’s not burned hot enough. Burn it at a reasonable temperature and you won’t have problems. A stove thermometer is cheap and will help you.
The glass on my stove goes should not go black and sooty
Blackened glass usually means you are not burning the wood hot enough. Ask your local professional sweep to show you how to control your stove.
