Chimney Maintenance Log

The Creosote Sweeping Log is a fireplace accessory designed to reduce dangerous creosote buildup in chimneys and wood stoves. It is intended for homeowners who use wood-burning fireplaces regularly and want a simple maintenance routine. The log is accepted by the Chimney Safety Institute of America and UL approved for safety assurance. It suits all chimney types including stainless steel and works with wood or oil-burning furnaces.

Simple Burn Installation

Using the log requires no tools or special skills; simply place it in the fireplace or wood stove and light it like a standard fire log. The log burns for approximately 90 minutes during which it heats creosote deposits and releases mineral-rich smoke. A common mistake is expecting immediate results, but the breakdown process continues over 15 days after burning. Users should ensure proper ventilation and follow the recommended usage frequency of every 50 fires or at least once per year.

Sustained Creosote Reduction

After the initial burn the active minerals continue working inside the flue for up to 15 days to break down stubborn tar deposits gradually. This extended action improves airflow and burning efficiency throughout the heating season rather than providing only a short-term effect. Regular annual use helps maintain a clearer chimney and lowers the risk of chimney fires over time. The 3.10 pound log measures 4.00 inches by 12.00 inches by 4.00 inches for easy storage.
