Sure is! DW woke me up @ 0 dark 30 (4:20) telling me we had a chimney fire....nice to wake up to. We didn't, actually, but the wind was making the stove burn so hot that she'd seen red where the pipe goes into the thimble, and could hear roaring in the chimney. I closed the damper & the door vents while she called the fire dept., just in case. When they showed up it was back to normal. I guess we hadn't burned it hot enough for long enough to keep the creosote burned off. The part that baffles me is why that much creosote was even there. We've burned nothing but aged hardwood, like 3-4 years old, & the chimney, thimble, and pipes got the best cleaning they've ever had before we built the 1st fire. Fire dept. had an infrared flotchie that detects heat. They checked the inside wall closest to the chimney & detected no heat other than what my digital alarm clock was giving off
oh wow! wife isnt throwing anything in that could cause build up I hope. That is scary! Glad you called them!

Wow, that must have woke you up fast. Glad there wasn't an issue.
