(Turn to P«fl* 824) CHIMTEK" ADVANCED CHIMNEY TECHNOLOGY SAFER: CHIMTEK is designed to withstand severe chimney fires without breaking or transmitting high temperatures to adjoining combustible materials. LESS CREOSOTE: Wood smoke contains moisture ( H t O). When the smoke comes into contact with a surface under approx. 250 degrees F the water will condense to a liquid. This liquid combined with other products in wood smoke will result in creosote. Creosote can be very dangerous when it ignites. The inside of a CHIMTEK chimney stays much war mer and greatly reduces the amount of creosote formation. In many cases CHIMTEK chimneys are completely clean after years of use. IMPROVES STOVE PERFORMANCE: The draft produced by a chimney is what' puDs oxygen into the fire for combus tion. The three main factors affecting draft are the chimney’s height, size and temperature. CHIMTEK contains a great amount of a very special insulating material that is not affected by moisture saturation and will not Seattle or deter iorate. Poor draft will result in poor oombusion. Poor combu sion will create more smoke. Smoke is wasted fuel. Newere EPA certified stoves are especially dependent on proper draft to perform properly. ELS, BfIASSUME!
