Annual Chimney SweepsFor homeowners’ safety, it’s important to perform annual chimney sweeps. Even the National Fire Prevention Association (NFPA) has a standard outlining the need for this. Why, you might ask, is this necessary? It’s closely related to the toxic byproduct that accumulates on the inner walls of your Greenwich, CT chimney.
As you burn fires, this toxic substance, creosote, takes on a tar-like substance that is difficult to clean without the help of professionals. Not only does this substance pose difficulties when it comes to cleaning, it can also be the cause for a smelly chimney and can produce toxic fumes as it collects. The more creosote that collects, the higher the risk of a chimney fire is present too. This substance is highly flammable and can easily catch fire if neglected.
All of our chimney professionals are licensed and follow the same process we use at all of our Greenwich, CT client’s homes. To get the job done thoroughly, we have a variety of chimney sweep brushes, including drill-powered ones for heavy build up. In some cases, for heavy fireplace users, it’s necessary to use a chemical to tackle the buildup. The chemical we use is called Poultice Creosote Remover to dissolve creosote if it is classified as a third-degree glazed creosote.
In addition to any creosote removal efforts, we use industrial vacuums to take care of all dust and ash. Throughout the process, it’s possible that debris could get inside your home, but we make sure to clean this as well. It’s important for us to care for your home and leave it cleaner than when we arrived. If you have anything valuable that you would prefer not be exposed to the ash, we recommend removing it from the mantel or fireplace area.
We tackle all external debris as well. While we may not use our vacuums to remove things such as leaves, twigs, and nesting material, we ensure all obstructions are taken care of. A clear chimney exit allows for a healthy draft for smoke and toxins to leave your home efficiently. As we take care of debris and animal removal, we may offer product suggestions to improve your chimney’s performance, such as a custom chimney cap to keep both debris and animals out.
