Magnetic Color-Coded Stove Thermometer For Safe Wood Burning From Boone Hearth;

This thermometer from Boone Hearth makes it easy to ensure the proper use of your wood-burning stove. There is an ideal range for wood burning, at which the fuel is being used efficiently and creosote is not accumulating inside your chimney. When the needle is in the too-hot "red" range, the fire is too hot and fuel is being wasted. When the temperature is in the too-cold "yellow" zone, creosote builds up in the stove and stove pipe. Creosote is flammable, and danger can be averted simply by preventing it from accumulating in the first place.
