Скачать или смотреть 🔥 Time for Some Stove Pipe Cleaning & Firewood Planning 🔥

Let's talk about a crucial but often overlooked aspect of wood-burning - cleaning your stove pipe.

Why? Creosote.

🌲 What's Creosote?

Creosote is this sticky, flammable substance that loves to build up in chimneys. It's a culprit behind many chimney fires. Keeping it in check is important for safety.

🔥 Burn Hardwoods to Reduce Creosote

Opt for hardwoods over softwoods. Why? Hardwoods are more dense, meaning they pack more wood fiber per volume. This translates to more energy and longer, steadier burn times. Plus, you get less smoke and sparks, and importantly, less creosote buildup.

🧹 Cleaning Your Stove Pipe

Grab a square Wire Chimney Brush and a few extension rods. Use an up and down motion to scrub out that creosote buildup. Once you're done, vacuum up the leftovers for a clean finish.

💧 Moisture Matters

Want an even better burn? Check out a wood moisture meter. The sweet spot for firewood moisture is between 15% and 20%. This ensures efficient burning and reduces smoke and creosote.
