Physically, soot (image on top) is powdery to touch, brown or black, and only settle on the surface. Soot is formed from the smoke. As the smoke rises from the stove, the dry particles cling to the pipe lining. Due to its color and consistency, soot can soil your carpets or stain surfaces such as walls and floors. Cleanup can be extremely messy. Protect the area surrounding your wood stove from soot with heat-resistant stove boards. Creosote (image at the bottom) is a more severe combustion byproduct; it’s tarry, thick, and sometimes flaky. The smoke from flames travels upward and mixes with cold air and moisture from the top of the chimney. Once cooled down, it sticks to surfaces more like cement, making it harder to remove. Over time, the risk of chimney fire increases as the buildup gets thicker. Toss in a stick or sprinkle some soot remover ideally, once per week, onto a brisk hot, burning fire to prevent further buildup. Use Soot Remover Dry Sponge to quickly clean soot on exposed surfaces of wood stoves and fireplace walls. Diligently cleaning these surfaces will prevent the accumulation of baked-on dirt and soot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to install wood stove pipes, elbows, and accessories\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/img.imageboss.me\/imperialgroup\/width\/655\/format:webp\/site\/Crimped-End-Down.jpg\" alt=\"\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eCreosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-burning fire.

Connecting pipes this way will result in adequate condensation. It will allow the creosote to flow within the pipe and return to the firebox to be burnt and fully dissipate. See picture.

Not running the same size stove pipes or running the pipe line from a large stove opening to end on a small chimney pipe will cause draft issues and excessive creosote within the pipes that will reduce the efficiency of your stove. While a transition in diameter of stove pipes is not recommended, if one is necessary, make it at the farthest point possible from the stove appliance, i.e., at the chimney outlet. Installing the increaser or reducers away from the stove will maximize the evacuation of flue gases allowing warm air to rise steadily within the pipes. Note: Unless your appliance manual recommends it, do not use a reducer. Reducers can cause downdrafts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is initial burn crucial before using a wood stove?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/img.imageboss.me\/imperialgroup\/width\/655\/format:webp\/site\/Stove-board-BLACK-PIU.jpg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInitial Burn\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe paint on newly bought and installed black matt stove pipes or accessories is not cured.
