Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

Minimize Creosote in your Chimney

Creosote is a fire hazard material that is found in chimneys and fireplaces. It is a mineral deposit that is built up from wood that is burned inside the fireplace. It is highly combustible and can be ignited by even a small piece of glowing ember or smoldering paper or spark that will be sucked up by the flue.

When dealing with accumulated creosote in the chimney, regular cleaning and inspection of the chimney is the number one way to minimize the buildup. If you will follow the guidelines and get tips from a professional chimney sweep or expert chimney service technician, you can avoid chimney fire. They will recommend the proper care for your chimney and alert you of any problems you may have to keep your chimney and your house free of fire hazards. For example, one thing (of many) they will check is if your flue is too big. Chances of creosote build-up are high in an improperly sized flue because the space on the flue will make the air cooler while the smoke is going up. Once this happens, second degree creosote will be deposited inside the chimney. The creosote in this degree is hard to remove with a chimney brush and it is highly flammable. They will also tell you to make sure that the logs or wood that you use in the chimney are seasoned or dried wood. If you use wet wood, the smoke that will go up will be cooler and hence create more creosote deposits that get stuck inside the chimney.

As already discussed, creosote is a highly combustible element; you need to pay special attention towards it if you are using a chimney at home. Whether you are using a chimney for an indoor fireplace or for cooking purposes, such as a wood burning stove, staying attentive towards the deposition of creosote can always help you to eliminate the chance for a possible fire hazard. Creosote produces a smell similar to freshly paved asphalt so if you have an odd smell coming from your chimney that can help you to determine its deposition as well.

Everyone with a fireplace should know that annual cleanings from a professional chimney sweep to remove creosote buildup is the best prevention of a chimney fire. Ignoring your chimney can trigger severe damages and safety risks that can easily be avoided. Safety first is our number one priority!
