Creosote buildup from burning unseasoned wood
Why it happens here
Many Mount Victoria homeowners buy firewood locally without checking moisture content. Wet wood burns cooler and produces more creosote. The windy slopes here also cause draft issues that worsen buildup. Glazed creosote is common in Mount Victoria East.
Our approach
We sweep with Sooteater rotary rods and apply Meeco's Red Devil creosote remover. We also test your wood moisture and show you how to season it properly. If the buildup is severe, we schedule a follow-up sweep in 6 months.
