MEECO'S RED DEVIL

About Us

  • Since 1937
  • In 1937, a Seattle company operating as Marine Electrolysis Eliminator Company (MEECO), under a contract from the United States Department of Natural Resources developed a product for the removal of soot from wood-burning stand-by generators and power plants. The company trademarked the name “MEECO’S RED DEVIL” and introduced this product to the general public the same year. From this beginning, MEECO has built its reputation of quality and service.

Product is great, packaging a problem

Product is great, packaging a problem
We have used the creosote destroyer for several years. Our order, a 5 pound container, was shipped as five 1 pound containers, no problem. Unfortunately when shipped the sixth container in the box was removed and no packing was placed in the box. The containers were not taped closed. During shipping the containers opened in the box. It appears the post office personnel did add some packing and retaped the box. We lost almost a full pound of product. It doesn’t seem reasonable to return the whole mess so we will keep what we received but are disappointed in the condition and quantity of the product.
Thank you for your feedback
