Maybe someone on here has some insight on this one... I heat my house with a Clayton 1600M woodburning forced air furnace. Due to my work schedule during the winter (12+ hour shifts) I have to fill the stove with wood and damper it way down so it lasts until I get home. This causes the stovepipe (triple wall stainless) to build up creosote. I know this isn't an ideal situation, but it's the reality right now. Anyway, I took it all apart and cleaned it today. The single wall pipe that connects the furnace to the triple wall, I take outside, stand it up and light it to burn all the creosote out of. It works great and comes out spotless. For the first time (this is the second year), I couldn't get the creosote out of the triple wall. The buildup is very bumpy. At its thickest parts, it's maybe just a bit more than 1/4" thick, and inbetween the bumps it's about 1/8" thick. It usually brushes out easily, but today I scrubbed and scrubbed with the wire brush and it won't come out. Some of it just turned to dust, but that was it. The stuff is so hard I couldn't scrape it out with a screwdriver. What the heck is this stuff? How do I get rid of it???

It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
