there is nothing intrinsically wrong with a stove that doesn't heat like it used to. It is in the wood that you are using. Maybe this load of wood is not as seasoned as the loads you used before.

If you used Oak, Ash and Black Locust in the past, and are using Maple now, or Elm or Sycamore, it will not burn as hot. These woods burn faster but with less heat.
