Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

All About chimney Professional Soot Sweeper Vacuum
Chimneys and fireplaces need to be maintained on a regular basis if potential problems such as excessive smoke in the home are to be avoided. Aside from causing too much smoke in the home, in case there is a build-up, then the possibility of a fire is a major concern.

Ideally, the chimney should be cleaned and maintained at least once a year to avoid problems from occurring, such as those mentioned above. As a home owner, you can undertake the regular maintenance of the chimney; however, there are times such as when intensive repairs and cleaning is needed that you need to look towards a professional chimney sweep.

Whether you choose to do the work yourself, or hire a professional, there are some important things that need to be checked during chimney sweeping.

A look at some important aspects of the chimney that should be maintained and cleaned:

Chimney Flues
When chimney cleaning is being done, do ensure that the flue lining in your fireplace is properly checked for any damages. This way, dangerous gases that are created by fires are not given the opportunity to enter into the interior of the house as opposed to being vented outdoors. Ensure that the flue is clear of any damages and ensure that you clean out any soot or creosote deposits present.

Chimney Crowns and Chimney Caps
The chimney cap and crown help ensure that the chimney between the flue and the outside of the chimney are protected. Unfortunately, with the passage of time, these tend to crack, or get weather damage. During the chimney sweep, it is important to ensure that this area is clear of any such damages, and if they are present, then they will have to be taken care of.

Problems with the Brickwork
Loose bricks are a danger to your home via the chimney. When there are loose bricks present, they tend to drop down the chimney and cause damage to the flue or cause a blockage. This can be disastrous for you and your family. As such, it is important that during the chimney sweep, such loose bricks are checked and taken care of.

A damaged flue can result in a deterioration of the chimney bricks and mortar owing to the gas produced. In addition, severely deteriorated brickwork can result in unstable chimneys.

Ultimately, debris such as leaves have to be removed from the chimney or fireplace because failure to do so my result in poor air flow from the fireplace to the outside, resulting in disasters such as a fire outbreak. In addition, instead of the smoke escaping to the outside, it will flow back to the inside posing a health risk to you and your family. This is why regular maintenance of the chimney is essential. Having a professional chimney sweep look into your chimney may not be a bad idea, because it helps eliminate future nasty surprises such as fire outbreaks, collapsed chimneys or bad smoke getting inside the house.
