My sister’s creosote build up in her exhaust pipe ignited one Thanksgiving. A fire of sticky tar, in a tube running through inaccessible walls and roof. That was interesting (ripped the pipe out quickly and it was contained). You may want to inspect before adding in a new exhaust, if you haven’t yet.

Chimney fires are incredibly scary, and I definitely will be cleaning the old piping before I do anything else. Fortunately I don’t have any sort of attic or complicated setup, it just goes through about 1’ of ceiling/roof and that’s it.
