Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

Creosote Cleaning Logs – Purpose and Brands Available
Irrespective of the type of fuel that is used on a fire creosote buildup cannot be ruled out. Regular chimney sweep s will help minimize creosote levels thus is advised. Home owners may also adopt the use of creosote cleaning logs. Cleaning logs are used to reduce and treat existing creosote.

One popular creosote log widely used by home owners is the chimney cleaning log that can be used in wood stoves, boilers, mixed fireplaces, wood burning appliances and oil fireplaces. It is easy to use and reduces creosote thickness and weight thereby reducing the chances of a chimney fire occurring.

Stovax protector chimney and flue cleaner used in wood burners and it helps in limiting soot, tar and creosote buildup in the chimney. Stovax dries out sticky and wet creosote thus loosening it; this causes the dried creosote to fall back to the fireplace making it easy to clean out.

The process of using a log isn't very tough. You need to start the fire to warm up inside of the flue. When you throw log in the fire, smoke filled with chemicals from log can go up through flue as well as may start coating Creosote. This will take over two to four weeks of the time after that you may see the flakes of the Creosote falling down of the Chimney in the fireplace.

Appliances

You may use Chimney sweeping logs at wood furnaces, coal stoves, wood burning stoves, and in the fireplaces. Furthermore the logs are very compatible with different kinds of the chimneys. But, because of presence of the chemicals in logs, they must not at all be used in the electrical appliances, wood and pellet stoves and barbecue grills.

Frequency

Usage of the chimney sweeping log will be associated at how often you will be using the fireplace. Suppose you burn more of wood, greater is amount of the Creosote accumulated in the chimney. Suppose you ever use fireplace just once on weekend, then one sweeping log every season can be enough for you. Suppose fireplace is a main source of the heat in home and you use this continuously, then you will require one log after each 2 months. This can help you combat process of the Creosote buildup.

Facts on Fire
