Chimneys are the key to
safe heating with wood
For householders who
heat with wood, a properly
„ constructed and operating
chimney is the most impor-
tant part of the heating sys-
tem. Although it is often ne-
glected, the chimney has an
important effect on how effi-
ciently and safely a wood -
tired stove or furnace system
works.
Chimneys produce the
draft needed to maintain
combustion in a wood -fired
heating system. Oil -fired
furnaces have a mechanized'
blower that forces air
through the firebox and
chimney. Even the finest
wood -fired stove will not
work properiy if it is con-
nected to a deficient
chimney.
A common problem is a
chimney that is too big for
the wood -fired heating sys-
tem. Generally, the chimney
should be the same size as
the stovepipe leaving the
stove or furnace. Exces-
sively large chimneys often
lead to, slow gas movement
and poor draft. Gases heat a
chimney and reduce the risk
of flammable creosote being
condensed on the chimney
lining. An insulated chim-
ney helps protect against
creosote formation by keep-
ing the chimney warmer.
New high-temperature
chimneys offer increased
protection to surrounding
building structures should a
chimney fire occur.
Masonry chimneys are
often not suitable for use
with a wood -fired heating
system. They can be too
large and most are built on
the outside of the house,
leading to condensation and
creosote problems on the
cold inner chimney surfaces.
Masonry chimneys can be
lined with properly sized
stainless steel liners to over-
come problems.
Even the best chimney
system requires frequent
cleaning. A weekly inspec-
tion for creosote buildup is
the best insurance against
problems. Creosote should
be cleaned with a chimney
brush before it builds up to
6 mm (1/4 inch). Chimneys
should be easily accessible
for inspection and have a
cleanout opening at their
base.
HEAT LINE
(Continued from Page 5)
HEATLINE's research
staff. She feels this ongoing
training is important to keep
up with the changing nature
of home energy technolo-
gies. Suzane's enthusiasm
for her work is typical of the
HEATLINE' s staff.
Although Suzane estimates
that she has received more
than 18 000 phone calls
since she began at the'
HEATLINE, she still finds
working with the public sat-
isfying and interesting.
The public's need for
the HEATLINE's, services
seems similarly constant. A
half million calls later, the
public still lights up 'the
switchboard looking for help
in their efforts to save
energy.
