Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

Obstruction in Chimney
Several ugly conditions can arise when there's an obstruction in your chimney. The entire fireplace may start working slowly. It won't be giving the required services as it should. The chimney may even stop working entirely when the condition becomes worse. There may be fire outbreak in the house. Awful and smoky odor may be oozing out from the chimney. You don't need to bother so much when you notice obstruction in the chimney. You can always deal with the situation if you care to discover the right steps to take.

In the first place, you need to know the possible causes of obstruction in chimney. Let's pinpoint them.
  • Flue Blockage
    When the chimney flue is blocked the entire chimney system will be obstructed. In most cases, the blockage can be caused by bird nest, debris, fallen bricks, creosote/soot build-up, and the like.
  • Negative air pressure
    Oftentimes, negative air pressure can be formed in the chimney. It often struggles against the chimney draft. This also draws the smoke backward and down the chimney flue. When such a situation occurs, the chimney can easily be obstructed.
  • Air leakage in the Chimney Flue
    When there are cracks in the connector pipe and other fittings that surround the chimney flue, air leakage is bound to occur. This can seriously obstruct the smooth running of the entire fireplace.
  • Creosote/ Soot Build-up
    Creosote and soot often build up in chimneys especially when the system is put into use for some months. When the build-up continues to increase without proper cleaning, the entire chimney system might be obstructed.
Dealing with Obstruction in Chimney
There are possible ways of dealing with obstruction in chimneys. You can carry out temporary clean up on the fireplace. You have to focus on clearing the creosote and soot that build up in the system. You can also go ahead to clean the chimney by using any available DIY cleaning method.

Secondly, it's important to decode the root cause of the obstruction. You can carry out a check on the entire fireplace. You might notice possible reasons that cause the blockage.

To be on a safe side, you can engage an expert chimney inspector to help you check the fireplace. You can also engage a certified Chimney Sweep to help you clean the system. This can save you enough troubles, time and energy.
