The Sweeping Log is an exclusive method of treating your chimney via a catalytic process . The Sweeping Log burns for about 90 minutes. The smoke from the Sweeping Log is charged with minerals, which are deposited onto the creosote over a period of several hours. During the next 10-15 days, the treatment will continue to work and the creosote will gradually fall away. It helps prevent chimney fires.
Minerals rise up to coat the tar and creosote.
Over a period of days this process hardens the tar and creosote. Brittle pieces gradually loosen and fall into the fireplace or stove.
