  • Page 13: Warning About Chimney Fires

    WARNING ABOUT CHIMNEY FIRES Failing to maintain your woodstove or fireplace properly can lead to a chimney fire. Chimney fires occur when combustible deposits on the inner walls of the chimney ignite. These combustible deposits, called "creosote," are a natural by-product of wood burning. A fire hazard exists if ¼” of creosote (or more) coats the inner walls of the chimney.
