A chimney sweep will do a detailed chimney cleaning to eliminate any type of deposits, soot, creosote, as well as obstructions from the chimney. Filthy, damaged deteriorating, and blocked chimneys create injuries and fires every year. If you use you fireplace or wood burning stove, the National Fire Protection Association suggests having your chimney examined as well as swept once-a-year in order to prevent fires.

What does a chimney sweep do?

A chimney service professional will execute a total cleaning of your chimney. Cleaning logs are truly not effective and are not advised. They will not remove all the soot and creosote build-up out of the chimney like hand cleaning.

Step 1: Safeguarding

To start, a cleaning specialist will shield the inside of your home by spreading out tarps over the space, flooring, and also hearth. They will cover the fire place with vinyl sheeting, placing an commercial vacuum hose pipe right into the fire place, and will after that tape and also seal the fire place. They'll attach extension pipes and run them to the industrial vacuum cleaner with a fine micron filter which rests outdoors. This will trap the fine soot, creosote, and other dust later.

Step 2: Sweeping

Next off, they will brush the entire chimney with hand held brushes, as well as brushes with extension poles. Normally they will start at the top of the chimney and work downward, meticulously cleaning all the surface areas. Your chimney sweep will clean the flue, the damper, the smoke chamber, the smoke shelf, and the firebox.

Step 3: Tidy up

They will then peel back a tiny portion of the vinyl sheet and use a range of brushes inside. Following this, everything will be vacuumed and also cleaned up. The vinyl sheeting and tarps will be relocated outside, cleared off and tucked back into their vehicle.

Our professional chimney specialists offer a complete range of services including sweeping. We give quick as well as trustworthy service.

What exactly is creosote?

Creosote is a brown, oily, tar-like substance which forms from burning wood or coal. It starts as a loose, feathery accumulation which in the beginning can be brushed away easily. As it accumulates more, it ends up being tar-like, and is more difficult to eliminate, occasionally requiring the use of scrapers to remove it. If left uncleaned, and even more layers develop, the creosote hardens.

When a fire is burned in the fire place or wood stove, the smoke becomes really hot. Hardened creosote can start to drip and melt like wax. When the build up of creosote is really heavy, it limits the airflow via the chimney flue. The restricted air circulation causes creosote to build up even faster.

Is creosote unsafe?

Creosote is unsafe in a number of different ways. It's toxic and unsafe for your health, and it places your residence at risk of fires.

Carbon monoxide gas

Creosote accumulation creates reduced air movement and this can enable carbon monoxide gas to accumulate inside your residence while a fire is burning. Carbon monoxide gas is an odorless and also colorless gas which can cause flu-like symptoms, and can also cause death.

Creosote Toxicity

Besides the carbon monoxide build up, creosote itself is poisonous. It might cause irritated skin and eyes, breathing troubles, and is carcinogenic (cancer causing).

Fire Risk

The most unsafe aspect of creosote is that it is exceptionally flammable. It's the most usual source of chimney fires. While chimneys are made to endure a high degree of heat, the intensity of a chimney fire can rapidly exceed this degree.

Exactly How to Eliminate Creosote

Getting a chimney sweep carried out is the very best as well as most effective means to eliminate creosote. Our licensed chimney service companies take excellent care of your chimney as well as your residence. We recommend that you get your chimney cleaned and examined at least yearly in order to prevent fires and hazardous build up.

How often should my chimney be cleaned?

Just how frequently a chimney needs to be cleaned depends of just how often you use it as well as what materials you burn inside. Gas burning fireplaces should be examined on a yearly basis. Although they burn cleaner, dampness, particles, cracks and other concerns can develop which can enable carbon monoxide to enter into the residence.

Oil burning flues ought to be cleaned yearly to prevent soot from developing.

Because wood burning fire places and stoves develop even more soot and creosote, they must be swept much more regularly. A great rule of thumb is to have your chimney swept after a cord of wood has been burned inside.
