Customer Reviews

This is a disaster waiting to happen
It seems odd that there are no negative reviews for this device. We have a neighbor that put it on their stove and it seemed great at first. Then after a month they noticed black tarry goo dripping from it. They kept trying to wipe it up, but it kept getting worse, eventually really messing up their new pipes and stove top. Then around 2 months their stove stopped drafting and he asked me about it. We found the Magic Heat was plugged solid with creosote and is almost impossible to clean.

However, they're lucky. The chimney sweep told them some disaster stories with these devices. He said they cool down the flue gases to the point where the creosote condenses everywhere. If this creosote catches fire, it is almost impossible to put out. Fortunately that didn't happen to them, but they're are glad they asked him to come out and check the chimney. Sure enough, the chimney was full of creosote. Maybe this is an ok device for an old stove that has a very hot flue, but not on a modern wood stove that extracts more heat from the fire and has a cooler flue. For some, it's a huge waste of money.

I bought this for a gift and the recipients absolutely love it. The ease of installation and easy operation are awesome. There was an instant effect with the heating of their home. This is a terrific product if your thinking about it, GET IT, they are worth every penny.

Dangerous device
This is a dangerous device that cools flue gases - and can cool them beyond design limits! They can cause build up in the chimney and deteriorate masonry. The savings do not outweigh the long-term detriment.
