Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

Unsafe Drafting from your Chimney – Describe how it happens
Flue gases are formed due to the hot combustion of product gases when coal, oil natural gas or any other fuel is combusted in a stove or fireplace. These gases then mixes with the outside air through chimneys or industrial gas stacks. Drafting problems can cause combustion products to enter the home leaving the place smoky and stinky. Drafting problems in the chimney occur due to incorrect firebox size or mishaps in installations. It may also be due to closed caps in chimney flues. Nesting materials may be brought in by birds or animals causing blockages and affecting the smooth drafting functions of the chimney. Even the firebox can be an issue to drafting problems if the firebox is not in a ratio to the chimney flue. A proper design of chimney, the length and size also ensures that drafting from the chimney is proper.

To fix the problem, it is good to know about how this developed at a first place. There're many confusing technical explanations on how chimneys work as well as how simple draft problem will result in the uncomfortable living environment. In order, to understand the draft problems, first you need to know what exactly is draft? The fireplace draft can be how well the fireplace displaces products of the fire up chimney & out in the atmosphere. The drafting problems will cause the combustion products for backing up or enter the home leaving behind some unpleasant & unsafe conditions. Suppose draft is working rightly, then harmful gases or smoke from fire can properly exit through chimney flue. Whereas there are a lot of factors that will cause the draft problems, typically there are easy solutions. First step will be finding problem at a first place!

How chimney works?

The chimneys work within parameters of a concept that the hot air rises. It is a basis on how chimney works. Known as stack effect, the concept is where the hot air all along with combustion gases from fire comes to top of chimney and area left vacant should get filled with the cooler air that then will help hot air to continue the ascent through chimney flue & out in environment. When this process works rightly, all the combustion products will leave chimney & none of gases escape in the room of your home.

The problems happen when hot air leaves through chimney flue however there is the negative air pressure into your room and this gets prevented from leaving. It causes the back draft where air that is actually meant to leave from top of chimney reverses & enters home instead. While back drafting happens, the process puts some harmful chemicals & soot in the rooms of home as well as creates the problem. Chimney may also crack due to a mechanical damage or from natural calamities like earthquake. Suppose the fireplace operates by gas starter or pilot lights, then check out any fittings to ensure that they are in right working order.
