2000 degrees. New safety standards require a flue to withstand 2100 degree temps.
To reduce the amount of smoke leaving a chimney, ensure proper air circulation by opening a window or door in the room, maintain a hot and clean-burning fire, use dry and seasoned wood, and have the chimney cleaned and inspected regularly to prevent blockages. A chimney cap can also help improve airflow and prevent downdrafts.
The buildup of soot and creosote from the chimney is often referred to as chimney residue or chimney deposits. This residue can be a fire hazard and should be regularly cleaned to maintain a safe and efficient chimney.
A chimney pot is designed to increase draft within a chimney by creating a higher exit point for smoke and gases. It helps to draw air through the chimney, improving ventilation and reducing the risk of downdrafts and smoke entering the home. Additionally, chimney pots can also enhance the aesthetic appeal of a building.
To clean out a chimney, you should first protect the surrounding area with a tarp or drop cloth. Next, use a chimney brush and rods to manually clean the soot and debris from the chimney walls. Alternatively, you can hire a professional chimney sweep to clean the chimney thoroughly and safely.
Santa went down my chimney. The chimney needs to be cleaned every now and then.
"Flue" is a channel for conveying hot steam or smoke (like in a chimney)
a solar chimney is a black painted chimney that attatches to the side of a biulding, it must be taller than the building though. when the sun heats the chimney, the hot air rises drawing the cold air out from under the ground therefore ventialting the house and also cooling on hot days. to cool you can close the vents that the hot air escapes through and insert fans in the chimney and the hot air will be blown around the house.

The heat that rises up the chimney is the hot air that is produced when fuel is burned in a fireplace or stove. As this hot air rises, it creates a draft that pulls in fresh air to fuel the fire and carries smoke and gases out of the chimney.
YES This can be done. AS LONG AS YOUR CHIMNEY IS NOT DAMAGED I will assume you mean your chimney angles the chimney liner is pull down though the chimney flue with the included liner puller then attach to the proper piping attached to your hot water tank & or furnance DW Brick & Chimney Repair
Smoke moves in the chimney due to the difference in temperature and pressure between the inside and outside of the chimney. As hot air rises, it creates a draft that draws the smoke up and out of the chimney. The design of the chimney, including its height and width, can also impact how efficiently the smoke is expelled.
Creosote is not created- it is naturally in the wood. A "cool" burn lets the creoste present in the smoke condense on the walls of the chimney. With a hot burn, the flue gasses are hot enough that less is deposited on the chimney. Wet wood gives a cooler burn.

Smoke rises up the chimney partly because hot air rises and partly because it is pushed wind blowing across the top of a chimney lowers the air pressure there the higher pressure at the bottom pushes air and smoke up the chimney

At the beginning of fall, before you build a fire in your fireplace make sure to open the chimney's flue.
