Made With Natural Ingredients
Co-Mate® is as natural as the wood you’re burning.
Co-Mate® Chimney Cleaner is a coarse, free-flowing powder that is activated by the fire inside your wood-burning appliance to actually enhance combustion chemistry and alter the ash formation process.
Co-Mate®'s Unique Dual-Action Formula is Heat Activated
Improves Combustion Efficiency
Co-Mate® functions as a combustion catalyst that makes fuel burn more completely, optimizing heat output.
Physically Alters the Ash Formation Process
Co-Mate® also functions as an ash modifier that combines with ash as it forms and cools, safely and effectively destroying creosote formation.
Safe. Clean. Effective.
Co-Mate® Chimney Cleaner is the simplest and most effective way of keeping the chimney of your wood-burning appliance clean all year round.
For use in wood stoves, fireplaces, pellet stoves, wood furnaces, and coal-fired appliances.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Co-Mate® a harsh chemical? Is Co-Mate® dangerous in any way?
No, Co-Mate® is completely safe to handle. The product is inert, non-toxic, non-corrosive and non-flammable. Co-Mate® is made from carefully sourced and modified mineral compounds. It's not poisonous or harmful even if you were to accidentally ingest a small amount. In that case, just drink a glass or two of water or milk as a precaution.
How much Co-Mate® do I need to clean my chimney?
The usage guidelines on the product labeling call for different amounts of Co-Mate® depending on the type of appliance you have. For wood stoves and fireplaces, sprinkle evenly 2-3 tbsp (1-1.5 oz. or 28-42 g) over a fully developed fire once per day for 14 days of continuous operation. During this period, creosote deposits in your chimney will begin to fall, sometimes in large chunks, so check your system regularly to make sure these fallen creosote deposits do not block any flue gas passageways.
For larger appliances, or in cases where you’re using poor quality fuel or starting with significant creosote buildup, you may need to use Co-Mate® a little longer before your chimney could be considered clean. In cases of severe creosote buildup, have your chimney professionally cleaned before using Co-Mate®.
How can I know that Co-Mate® is working?
The easiest way to see if Co-Mate® is working is to simply look up your chimney from inside your heating appliance or down from your roof. If you have opportunity to do this, and you have been using Co-Mate® regularly for several weeks, you may even notice a light-colored coating in your chimney instead of creosote accumulation. This is the anti-corrosion protection that Co-Mate® provides throughout your entire heating system.
If you can’t easily see inside your chimney, you will eventually notice that the air in and around your home will smell cleaner. This is an important indicator that tells you that not only is your chimney operating cleanly, but Co-Mate® is also preventing new creosote from forming.
Finally, a clean chimney means more consistent and efficient heat transfer from the chimney to your home. You may be able to notice this directly, and in time, you may notice that you are burning less fuel.
