A chimney sweep will do a comprehensive chimney cleaning to eliminate any deposits, soot, creosote, and blockages from the chimney. Dirty, damaged deteriorating, and obstructed chimneys trigger injuries as well as fires yearly. If you use you fireplace or wood burning stove, the National Fire Protection Association suggests having your chimney inspected and swept once-a-year in order to prevent fires.
A chimney service specialist will perform a complete cleaning of your chimney. Cleaning logs are truly not effective and are not suggested. They will not remove all the soot and creosote accumulation out of the chimney like hand cleaning.
To begin, a cleaning service technician will shield the inside of your home by spreading tarps over the area, flooring, and hearth. They will cover the fire place with vinyl sheets, placing an commercial vacuum pipe into the fire place, and will after that tape and seal off the fireplace. They'll connect extension hose pipes and run them to the commercial vacuum with a fine micron filter which sits outdoors. This will catch the fine residue, creosote, and other dust later on.
Next off, they will clean the entire chimney with hand held brushes, as well as brushes with extension rods. Normally they will start on top of the smokeshaft and work downward, very carefully cleaning all the surface areas. Your chimney sweep will clean the flue, the damper, the smoke chamber, the smoke shelf, and the firebox.
They will then peel back a little portion of the plastic sheet and use a range of brushes inside. Following this, everything will be vacuumed and cleaned. The plastic sheeting and tarps will be moved outside, cleaned off and put away.

Creosote is a brownish, oily, tar-like material which develops from burning wood or coal. It starts as a loose, feathery build up which initially can be brushed away easily. As it accumulates more, it ends up being tar-like, and is more difficult to eliminate, in some cases requiring the use of scrapers to remove it. If left uncleaned, and even more layers develop, the creosote solidifies.
When a fire is burned in the fire place or wood stove, the smoke comes to be really hot. Hard creosote can begin to drip as well as melt like wax. As soon as the build up of creosote is extremely hefty, it restricts the air movement via the chimney flue. The restricted air flow causes creosote to accumulate even quicker.
Creosote is hazardous in a number of various ways. It's toxic and unsafe for your health, and it puts your residence at risk of fires.
Creosote build up triggers diminished airflow and this can enable carbon monoxide gas to accumulate inside your home while a fire is burning. Carbon monoxide gas is an odorless as well as colorless gas which can cause flu-like symptoms, and can even cause death.
Besides the carbon monoxide accumulation, creosote itself is toxic. It can trigger inflamed skin and eyes, breathing troubles, and is carcinogenic (cancer creating).
The most harmful thing about creosote is that it is extremely flammable. It's the most typical source of chimney fires. While chimneys are made to withstand a high level of heat, the intensity of a chimney fire can swiftly exceed this level.
Getting a chimney sweep done is the very best as well as most reliable means to remove creosote. Our qualified chimney service companies take terrific care of your chimney and your home. We suggest that you get your chimney cleaned and checked at the very least annually in order to prevent fires and hazardous build up.
How often a chimney must be cleaned depends of how often you use it as well as what materials you burn inside. Gas burning fireplaces ought to be inspected yearly. Although they burn cleaner, moisture, debris, fractures and other issues can develop which can allow carbon monoxide gas to enter into the home.
Oil burning flues ought to be cleaned annually to keep soot from accumulating.
Due to the fact that wood burning fireplaces and stoves develop even more soot and creosote, they must be swept a lot more often. A great rule of thumb is to have your chimney swept after a cord of wood has been burned within.
