The Chimney Balloon Smoke Pencil is the tool the professional Energy Raters use to identify drafts and air leaks in a home.
This non-toxic smoke stick generates a small amount of smoke to help you identify drafts in your home. Pull the trigger on the smoke stick near the area that you suspect a draft and see how the smoke moves to show the air movement. The light on the end of the smoke stick illuminates the smoke and the area you are testing for easy air movement detection. 3oz of smoke fluid bottle with a special filling tube is included with the Smoke Pencil.
You control the amount of smoke this Smoke Pencil generates by holding the finger trigger. The smoke is a harmless non-toxic sweet smelling Water, Glycol and Glycerin (similar to toy train smoke) vapor. It does not use the dangerous and caustic smoke that other smoke sticks often produce.
You can use this Smoke Pencil all over your home as you seal and insulate. Use it to see if your fireplace chimney will draft properly or test if your damper is sealing tightly. See if your windows and doors are weather stripped well and seal tight. Test to see if you need to tape the HVAC ducts in your basement or attic....and there are many more uses!

1 - Smoke Pencil Draft Detector (6AA Batteries required, not included)
1 - 3oz Bottle of non-toxic liquid smoke with special filler spout

Energy Rater Note:Other smoke sticks can create respiratory aggravation since they have very dangerous chemicals in them. Most of these other smoke sticks cant even be brought on a plane or sent via Air Package Carrier because of the dangerous chemicals they contain. Even ground transportation carriers mark them as hazardous and the US Mail will not accept them. This pencil is different since it electronically creates the harmless sweet smelling Glycol/Glycerin smoke by electrically heating the smoke liquid only when the trigger is pulled. Also the smoke liquid comes in a small 3 oz bottle that is the allowable size by airport transportation.
