# How to Know if My Buck Stove Is Leaking Smoke?
Buck Stove is a company that makes a range of different home heating solutions. The company makes coal and wood stoves. Some of the stoves are fireplace-style heating setups. Others are standalone stoves connected to a central HVAC duct system for whole home heating. If there is a leak in the system, this can reduce the efficiency of the heating system. Smoke can also cause breathing problems and damage to painted walls and fabrics in the home.
