When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar
and other organic vapors, which combine
with expelled moisture to form creosote. The
creosote vapors condense in the relatively

Some coals contain large amount of sulphur
(up to 7%). Combined with moisture, deposits
forms a highly corrosive acid (sulphuric acid).
Burn only low sulphur coals (less than 1%).
With a new installation, the chimney should be
inspected frequently (every 2 weeks if need
be) to determine the rate of creosote forma-
tion. When familiar with the appliance and
chimney characteristics, the chimney should
be inspected at least once every 2 months
during the heating season to determine if a
creosote or soot build-up has occured.

incomplete combustion of wood produces
acids which, when combined with moisture,
are corrosive.
During the heating season, corrosion tends
not to occur because the heat in the system
evaporates the condensation of any water
vapour that may be formed.
Warm, moist air during the summer months
passes slowly through the heating system. It
makes any remaining ash or creosote moist
and soggy. Corrosion of steel occurs where
these deposits remain.
