CREOSOTE When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapours. These combine with moisture to form creosote. Creosote vapours condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire. - Page 10 Fully open the air control of the wood stove and close the door until it is slightly open, allowing for much needed air to be introduced into the fire box. Never leave the door fully open as sparks from the kindling may occur causing injury.
- Page 11 7) Is it normal for soot to cover the glass at the beginning of a fire? Your stove has been built with an air wash system that will help keep the glass clear when the firebox has reached a good operating temperature, and has a good draft. Cold firebox temperature and poor draft cause sooting of the glass.
