Why clean your chimney?
Here is an informational video from the Cheshire fire brigade that gives you some helpful reasons!
Nothing beats a real fire in the winter months. Huddling round a roaring flame is a pleasure that mankind has enjoyed from ancient times.
But it is important to maintain all aspects of your fire. Your chimney is an important ventilation system that allows smoke, toxins and dangerous fumes to escape the home. A clean chimney means a safer, more efficient fireplace and home heating system.
A wood burning fireplace can reach temperatures of up to 1100F or nearly 600C. This creates ash, bits of wood, soot and other particles that are by-products of the combustion process that can cover the flue liner, smoke shelf, damper and masonry with dirt, grime and other contaminants. Also, small birds, rodents and insects can clog the flue preventing the escape of toxic fumes. And since the toxic fumes have difficulty escaping a clogged chimney, the risk of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning, AKA the "silent killer" also increases.
Professional chimney cleaning helps to reduce wear and tear on these components so you can prevent costly chimney repairs from having to replace them prematurely. In addition, a thorough top to bottom chimney cleaning can help uncover minor masonry problems before they develop into larger and more expensive chimney repairs. Don’t wait until it’s too late. Keep your home and family safe with a professional chimney cleaning; it takes only 45-60 minutes to ensure your safety through the year!
