How often should you burn a creosote log?

No matter whether you are using an electric fireplace, gas fireplace or wood burning stove, it is vital that the chimneys be checked at least once a year to ensure no problems. Creosote buildup can be hazardous and can even cause a house fire. You can also control the amount creosote that builds up in your chimney by adjusting how much air flows through it. Additionally, unburned wood in your firebox can encourage the buildup of creosote.

Chimney sweeps are required to have the proper training in order for them to safely operate around dangerous substances and flames. They should also be able to put you at ease, so you don't feel awkward or threatened when you're having them look at your chimney. A camera may be used by professionals to check their work.

Frequently Asked Questions

Professional disposal is possible using either a commercial RED-wheelie or a municipal bin. These are emptied every other week, and can be rented from local waste management companies.
