The Chimney System

Soot and Creosote - Formation and Need for Removal

When wood is burned slowly,  it produces tar and other

organic vapors,  which combine with expelled moisture

to form soot or creosote. The soot and creosote vapors

condenseintherelativelycoolchimneyueofaslowburning

re.Asaresult,sootorcreosoteresidueaccumulatesonthe

uelining.Whenignited,thissootorcreosotecanresultin

anextremelyhotre.

Thechimneyconnectorandchimneyshouldbeinspected

atleastonceeverytwomonthsduringtheheatingseason

todetermineifasootorcreosotebuild-uphasoccurred.If

sootorcreosotehasaccumulated(3mmormore)itshould

beremovedtoreducetheriskofachimneyre.

Checking your chimney and chimney connector more

frequently, especially while you are getting used to your

stove,isrecommended.Toinspectthissystem,letthestove
