Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

All About Chimney Sweeping/Cleaning Logs
Combustion residue or creosote tends to collect on the inner surfaces of a chimney flue liner. The end result is a fire waiting to happen. When the residue is allowed to build up, a fire is imminent. Ultimately having a dirty chimney can result in a fire. This is why it important to regularly inspect and clean your chimney. Ideally, this should be done on a yearly basis.

Inspecting the Chimney
Regular chimney inspection will help do away with a number of disasters such as fire outbreaks. It doesn't matter if you regularly or rarely use the fireplace, having it regularly inspected can help prevent unwanted problems in the future.

When you choose to have someone look over your chimney for you, ideally there are a number of things that need to be taken into consideration. Some of the things that the chimney sweep should look into include:
  • Ensuring that there are no damaged bricks and crumbling or missing mortar in the firebox.
  • Opening the damper to ensure that it fits snugly against the smoke shelf and is able to move freely. In addition, the damper has to be checked to ensure that there are no cracks present or rusted out sections for that matter.
  • Ensure that there is no debris present that could restrict air flow.
  • Checking the flues for cracks or damages.
  • Ensuring that there are no creosote deposits present.
Whatever the problem is with the chimney, each situation varies and calls for its own solution. Chimney inspection and repair can either be done by you or a professional chimney sweep. With that being said however, it is important to let the professionals deal with and correct complicated or hidden chimney problems that you may fail to uncover during your inspection.

There are a number of ways to keep your chimney safe, some of which include:
  • Ensuring that the chimney is clean of any debris or residue build up. You can clean the chimney with a vacuum or long-handled brush, depending on the equipment available at the hardware store.
  • Only utilize wood that is prone to producing a low amount of smoke.
  • Ensure that you open the damper or glass to promote air supply.
  • Keep track of flue temperatures.
When is it Necessary to Have Your Chimney Cleaned?
Ideally, the chimney needs to be cleaned at least once a year. You need to inspect the chimney for any damages or potential damages and deal with them before they can get out of control. It is recommended that the cleaning be done when you notice an eighth of an inch of soot within the chimney and flue.

The chimney needs to be cleaned even when you don't regularly utilize it. This is because it can collect dust which requires cleaning or it can collect insects, bugs or animals that need to be removed before they can pose a danger the next time the chimney is used. It is a good thing to let a professional chimney sweep take a look at your chimney every once in a while.
