Creosote - formation, and need for removal. When burning, it produces black smoke with a residue that is also black in color. When wood
pellets are burned slowly, they produce tar and other organic vapors that combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote
vapors condense in a relatively cool oven flue and exhaust hood of a slow-burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the
flue lining and exhaust hood. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire.
The grease duct should be inspected at least twice a year to determine when the grease and/or creosote buildup has occurred. When
grease or creosote has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of fire.
Follow these guidelines to prevent this colorless, odorless gas from poisoning you, your family or others:
•
Know the symptoms of carton monoxide poisoning: headache, dizziness, weakness, nausea, vomiting, sleepiness, and confusion.
Carbon monoxide reduces the blood's ability to carry oxygen. Low blood oxygen levels can result in loss of consciousness and death.
•
See a doctor if you or others develop cold or flu-like symptoms while cooking or in the vicinity of the appliance. Carbon monoxide
poisoning, which can easily be mistaken for a cold or flu, is often detected too late.
•
Alcohol consumption and drug use increase the effects of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Carbon monoxide is especially toxic to mother and child during pregnancy, infants, the elderly, smokers, and people with blood or circu-
latory system problems, such as anemia or heart disease.
