Chimney Fire; Specifications - Hi-Flame HF-737U Installation And Operation Instructions Manual

Chimney fire

Chimney fires occur when soot and creosote that have built up in the flue system ignite. If the
stove is operated properly and the flue checked and cleaned regularly, then chimney fires
should not occur. These fires can be very dangerous and must be avoided. Try to maintain
good, hot fires in the stove whenever possible and at least once during every firing, open the air
controls and allow the stove to burn on full for a short while until the entire fire bed is glowing
red. Check your flue system regularly for build-up of soot and creosote and clean as necessary.
Chimney fires can be detected by sparks coming from the top of the chimney, a roaring sound
coming from the area of the stove or chimney or vibration in the stove or chimney.
In the event of a chimney fire, close the air controls, evacuate the building and call the
fire department. Do not relight the stove after a chimney fire until the stove and flue have been
checked and any necessary repairs have been carried out.
