Execute flue brushing with properly dimensioned poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Carry out creosote testing to detect glazed deposits that need mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clear the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to verify effective removal and stable draft for dependable operation.

Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations

Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, schedule a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to ensure that your chimney and fireplace meet your heating system.

During your assessment, we record the condition of the liner, combustible clearances, and crown and cap and termination heights, and draft performance. We conduct ventilation testing to confirm adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our safety checklist covers the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, connection points, gas log installation safety, and carbon monoxide routes. You'll get a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to correct deficiencies and improve system safety and efficiency.
