Expert Chimney Sweeping and Creosote Removal
Protect your property by clearing soot and creosote before they develop into a fire hazard. This will reduce chimney temperatures, enhance draft, and maintain combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Begin with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to protect interiors. Conduct flue brushing with appropriately sized poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and confirm the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Discard debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and more info odor checks to verify effective removal and reliable draft for reliable operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, schedule a comprehensive inspection according to NFPA 211 to ensure the proper condition and compliance of your fireplace and chimney setup. A Level I inspection checks standard safety requirements, and Level II adds comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. Level III is necessary for hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
Throughout our inspection, we document liner integrity, clearances to combustibles, crown and cap condition and proper termination and draft levels. We run ventilation testing to verify adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our inspection includes the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll obtain a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
