Creosote
-
Formation
and Need for
Rernoval.
When wood or coal
is
burned
slowly.
it
prociuces
tar
and
ot'rer orginic
vapors,
which. combine
v,/ith ex'
pelled
moisture to
f
or'm creosote.
The
creosote
vapors condense
in the
relatively cool chimney
f lue
of
a slowburning
fire. As a result,
creosote
residue
accumulates
on the
flue Iining. When
ignited this
creosote
makes an
extremely
hot
fire. The risk ol
creosote
formation
is
larger with wood than
vrith coal.
The chimney connector
and
chimney should
be
inspected
al
least twice mouthly
during
the heating
season lo
determine
it a
creosote
buildup
has
occurred.
lf creosote
has accumulated
it
should
be
removed
to
reduce the
risk
of
a chimney
f ire.
2.10.

coal and
wocd as
