Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

Identifying Chimney Fire Hazards
Due to the products of fire combustion, your chimney is likely to be highly exposed to fire. It is thus advisable to regularly carry out checks that will help you identify fire hazards in the chimney. Chimney fires have become common in the recent past thus it is advisable to take precautions so as to avoid disasters. It is proper to routinely inspect both the exterior and interior of the chimney and firebox. In cases where you are able to identify any compromised structures, have a professional carryout the repairs.

Most chimney fire hazards are caused by the house owners themselves. It is proper that you ensure you are using the proper fuel for your type of fire place. Where wood is used, it is advisable that the wood be properly seasoned and stored in a dry place as moist wood is likely to split and topple from the fire place.

Avoid hanging any form of material over the fire place to "dry" as there is great possibility that burning ash or sparks may fall on the causing them to ignite. Ensure that you watch out for any items hanging new the fire place. The most important way to identify chimney fire hazards is to carry out scheduled flue and chimney inspections. Also have a maintenance schedule for the system in place. When you snuggle at cozy fire and bask in warmth of the wood stove, you're taking part in the ritual of enjoyment and comfort handed down through centuries. Last thing that you're likely to think about is condition of the chimney. But, if you do not give any thought to this before you light winter fires, your fun will be short lived. Dirty chimneys will cause the chimney fires that destroy homes, damage structures and kill or injure people. There're a lot of cleaning materials & chemicals that will keep chimney components durable, clean, and workable.

Nobody Welcomes Chimney Fire
The chimney fire at action can be quite impressive. The indications of the chimney fire are described as making:
  • Intense and hot smell
  • Dense smoke
  • Loud cracking & popping noise
The chimney fires will burn explosively –dramatic and noisy enough to get detected by the neighbors and people passing by. The homeowners report getting startled by low rumbling sound, which reminds them of freight train or low flying airplane. But, those are just chimney fires that you know about. The slow burning fires do not get enough of air and have fuel to get dramatic and visible. However, temperatures that they reach are high and will cause a lot of damage to chimney structure – and combustible parts of house –like their spectacular cousins. With right chimney system care, the chimney fires are totally preventable. The chimney helps your home air to stay breathable… as your bathroom and windows, kitchen vents and attic do. Not like other exhaust points of your home, fireplace & wood stove chimneys require special care, hence take precautions.
