How do you clean the chimney of a wood burning stove?

There are several different things that can be done to help prevent the buildup of creosote in a chimney. First: burn hard woods only. (no pine or other sappy woods) Second: have your chimney cleaned regularly. Third: there is a creosote conditioner that you can apply by placing it in your fire. It will burn and help clean your chimney. ----- We advise our customers to burn wood that has a 12-18% moisture content. If the wood is too wet it will smolder and create creosote, too dry and it will burn too quickly and will overwhelm the reburn system with too much smoke. Burn the stove hot for at least an hour a day to help. Other than that follow the three above rules. ----- One thing you can do is avoid using an airtight stove with a tightly restricted draft. Airtight stoves produce a lot of creosote, which is why they have fallen from favor with many people. If they are used with a more open draft, they can produce less creosote.


Can a wood burning stove put off carbon monoxide?

Yes and no. When wood burns, the first thing that happens is destructive distillation, and one of the products is carbon monoxide. The carbon monoxide is normally burned into carbon dioxide, producing a flame, along with other products of destructive distillation. Then the products of combustion go up the chimney. An airtight stove can produce carbon monoxide as a combustion product if it is not allowed to get enough air to burn properly. Older airtight stoves were more prone to this than newer. The carbon monoxide went up the chimney, and not into the house, but it was an atmospheric pollutant. In a case where the carbon monoxide fails to go up the chimney, a stove will normally just go out. There are exceptional cases where this would not happen, but proper operation of a stove would prevent it.
