A chimney sweep will certainly do a complete chimney cleaning to get rid of any type of deposits, soot, creosote, and also obstructions from the chimney. Dirty, damaged deteriorating, and blocked chimneys trigger injuries and also fires yearly. If you use you fire place or wood burning stove, the National Fire Protection Association advises having your chimney examined and also swept every year in order to protect against fires.
A chimney service expert will do a full cleaning of your chimney. Cleaning logs are really not effective and are not recommended. They will not remove all the soot and creosote accumulation out of the chimney like hand cleaning.
To begin, a cleaning technician will shield the inside of your home by spreading tarps over the space, flooring, and also hearth. They will cover the fireplace with vinyl sheeting, putting an commercial vacuum hose right into the fire place, and will after that tape and also seal the fireplace. They'll connect extension tubes and run them to the industrial vacuum with a fine micron filter which rests outdoors. This will trap the fine residue, creosote, and other dust later.
Next off, they will clean the entire chimney with hand held brushes, as well as brushes with extension poles. Normally they will begin on 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.
They will then peel back a little area of the plastic sheet and use a range of brushes inside. Following this, everything will be vacuumed as well as cleaned up. The plastic sheet and tarps will be relocated outside, cleaned off and tucked back into their vehicle.

Creosote is a brownish, oily, tar-like substance which forms from burning wood or coal. It starts as a loose, feathery build up which at first can be brushed away easily. As it builds up much more, it becomes tar-like, and is harder to remove, occasionally needing the use of scrapers to remove it. If left uncleaned, and 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. Solidified creosote can start to drip as well as melt like wax. When the build up of creosote is extremely heavy, it limits the air flow through the chimney flue. The restricted air flow causes creosote to accumulate even faster.
Creosote is unsafe in a couple of different ways. It's toxic and dangerous for your health and wellness, and it places your residence at risk of fires.
Creosote build up triggers reduced air movement and this can permit carbon monoxide to build up inside your home while a fire is burning. Carbon monoxide gas is an odorless and also colorless gas which can trigger flu-like symptoms, and can even cause death.
Besides the carbon monoxide build up, creosote itself is toxic. It could cause inflamed skin and eyes, breathing problems, and is carcinogenic (cancer triggering).
The most harmful aspect of creosote is that it is unbelievably combustible. It's the most usual source of chimney fires. While chimneys are made to withstand a high degree of heat, the intensity of a chimney fire can swiftly surpass this degree.
Getting a chimney sweep done is the best and also most reliable way to remove creosote. Our licensed chimney service companies take fantastic care of your chimney and also your house. We advise that you get your chimney cleaned and examined a minimum of annually in order to avoid fires and poisonous build up.
Just how often a chimney must be cleaned depends of just how often you use it and also what materials you burn within. Gas burning fireplaces need to be checked on a yearly basis. Although they burn cleaner, dampness, particles, fractures and various other problems can develop which can allow carbon monoxide to enter the house.
Oil burning flues ought to be cleaned once a year to prevent soot from building up.
Due to the fact that wood burning fire places and stoves create more soot and creosote, they need to be swept a lot more often. A great general rule is to have your chimney swept after a cord of wood has been burned inside.
