I used, almost exclusively, dead elm that was losing it's bark and assorted fall downs from the woodlot on our property. Moisture lever, for the most part was 15% to 25%, as measured with a moisture meter. Almost never cut a live tree as there are plenty of fall-downs. This product was purchased in early January when a different brand was running out. Used one tablespoon full every other load of wood and tossed and spread it into the fire. This summer, I checked the triple wall metal chimney. With shaky legs, nerves on edge, and a heavy rope tied around my waist, my 83 year old bones ventured onto the metal roof of the pole barn that houses the furnace. Using a wire chimney cleaning brush and accessories, it was surprising at the ease of which the brush moved up and down the chimney. Got down safely, albeit a little shaky. To my amazement, less than four coffee cups of powdered creosote was removed from the clean-out. Double checked the chimney condition with a flex mirror on a metal extension shaft and found it extremely clean with no build up. That says an awful lot about the effectiveness of this product. A lid that it very difficult to remove and a little pricy, but five pounds goes a long way... and if you've ever had a chimney fire, and I have in years past, the cost of this product is well worth every cent. Highly recommended. PLEASE CHANGE THE LID. Hope this helps. Review: I was hoping this was the answer - I'm a prime member, so even though my e mail notification claimed I would get the product 4 days after I ordered it, it came in 2 days like it should have. I hadn't had a chimney fire while burning wood in a boiler for over 22 years. I bought a new boiler this past fall and had a fire within 2 months. I've never had creosote build up in the chimney with my previous boiler, and many times didn't even have to clean the chimney after a full winter of burning, and my burning season is mid October through mid March. So I was quite shocked to have that much creosote build up within 2 months. So after the fire, $250 for the fire dept., and starting again with a clean chimney, I started burning again, with a little trepidation, I must say. I decided to try this product because climbing on my snow covered, steep, two story roof to clean my chimney once a month is not a pleasant alternative. Before I started burning again, I checked the chimney. Clean all the way with no creosote build up anywhere. After burning for 3 days I checked it again. I noticed a small, fist sized build up in one corner of the chimney already. I used a coffee scoop filled 2/3 (around 2 teaspoons) with Meeco's Red Devil Creosote Destroyer and tossed it into the fire. Instructions say to use 2 teaspoons every third fire and I'm assuming that those directions are for a fireplace. My wood boiler is fired continuously so I decided to put a scoop in every three days. When the third day arrived, I checked the chimney and the fist sized build up was gone. It looked exactly like it did after the fireman left. So as of right now, I'd say this product works! I will continue to use it every 3 days and come back to update this review in another month. Update: Well I said I would update in a month, but I couldn't wait that long. After one use, I saw an improvement. Using the product every 3 days is not the answer for me. I checked out my chimney this morning and could not see daylight, so once again, I have creosote after burning less than 2 weeks. I'm going to get the chimney cleaned and try using the product every day and report on those results. ## Features - CONVENIENT 5-POUND SIZE - Generously sized for extended use, this creosote remover for chimneys provides ample coverage to tackle creosote accumulation in woodstoves and fireplace inserts. - PROACTIVE MAINTENANCE - Adopt a proactive approach to chimney cleaning with regular use of our creosote powder, ensuring ongoing cleanliness and safety. - ENHANCES SAFETY AND IMPROVES PERFORMANCE - Our creosote destroyer serves as a catalyst to eradicate existing creosote, ensuring a secure fireplace experience while optimizing airflow and minimizing buildup for smoother, more efficient burns. - HOW MUCH TO USE AND WHEN: Sprinkle in 2 tablespoons every 3rd fire or every other day if burning 24/7.

The chimney is routed up through the original fireplace chimney. Since it is enclosed much more heat goes into the living area. The blower option greatly increases the heat blown into the living area. **Q: can I avoid chimney cleaning if i use this Have stainless 2 story pipe havent cleaned for 2 years** A: Sorry, but it still needs to be cleaned, it isn't to be used in place of cleaning it just greatly reduces the amount of creosote that builds up to reduce the amount of cleaning needed. I only do mine once a year now. Most of the creosote is at the top of the chimney above the roof line, I'm 2 stories also. I was doing it every month and getting a good amount of creosote, I don't burn really hot my house is very well insulated. Then I started using this product, one scoop a day, and the difference was amazing. I get less after the whole burning season then I use to get every month. The cleaning is much easier and for the piece of mind and safety of my animals it is worth the 1/2 hour it takes to clean it. **Q: Is this product safe to use on stoves with a catalyst?** A: In my experience, yes! It was perfectly fine during the burn season.When I cleaned my catalyst late this spring after burn season, the creosote was not much on it than before surprisingly. **Q: Is it effective on 3rd stage creosote?** A: Yes it is. It will not completely clean a chimney that has 3rd stage creosote, but it will loosen it up so it will be easier to remove with a brush. Really, this is great stuff. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ OUTSTANDING RESULTS *by W***? on October 18, 2023* We have a large Outdoor Wood Furnace that is active from October 15 through late April and burn about 18 cord per season.
