Why You Should Clean the Chimney

Did you know that something as simple as chimney cleaning can significantly reduce the chance of fire? Your wood-burning fireplace or heating stove produce smoke, soot, ash, creosote, and many other contaminants. While most of these contaminants exit the chimney, some stick to the interior walls and components on its way out, where it can create a fire hazard.

The Hidden Danger Lurking in the Chimney

The problem with creosote is that it has the potential to be extremely flammable. It begins as a thin powdery substance that is quite easy to sweep away. If allowed to remain, it continues to accumulate where it changes into a slick, oily substance until it finally becomes a hard and tarry material. It’s in this latter stage of 3rd-degree creosote that it is highly flammable and challenging to remove. This is why the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA) recommends homeowners have an annual chimney cleaning and inspection.

When we clean your chimney, a professional chimney sweep will remove the dirt, soot, and other debris, including 3rd-degree creosote that is accumulating in your flue and on internal components. It will not only make your chimney safer, but your fireplace and heating stove will also operate more efficiently.

Here is what to expect during our inspection and cleaning process:

• We lay out tarps in front of the fireplace to protect your floor and carpet.
• We clean the inside of your chimney, firebox, and smoke chamber with specialty tools while using a dual HEPA filters to control dust
• We then clean, inspect and adjust the damper and damper assembly.
• We do a visual inspection of the outside of the chimney, checking the mortar, brick and crown or chase cover.
• We use a specialized camera system to inspect areas we cannot see from the top or bottom such as the liner or flue.
• We leave a copy of the written evaluation with you at the completion of the job.
• We encourage our customers to watch us work and ask any questions you may have.
