I know in Calgary you can't get a permit to install stoves that don't meet current certifications. It's illegal to install a chimney dampener on those units and modern stoves don't allow you to close down combustion air beyond a certain point, in order to ensure efficient burns. Only damper on stove.

Also, how do you run your stove with respect to burn temperatures and burning properly seasoned wood?

Many factors can effect chimney build up. Proper design, operation and fuel, as well as periodic cleanings to evaluate build up, go a long way to greatly reducing the risk of chimney fires,

Cleaning as often as you are and getting as much product removed as you do, something seems amiss.
The product is dry brown/black crumbles, not flammable. maybe 2 liters each clean.
