CREOSOTE

When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors. These combine with moisture to form creosote.

Creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney ﬂ ue of a slow burning ﬁ re. As a result, creosote residue

accumulates on the ﬂ ue lining. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot ﬁ re. The chimney should be

inspected regularly during the heating season to determine if a creosote build-up has accumulated. If this is the case, the

creosote should be removed to reduce the risk of chimney ﬁ re.

Things to remember in case of chimney ﬁ re:

1. Close draft control

2. Call the ﬁ re department
