Why Chimney Sweeping Should Be a Priority for Homeowners

Chimney sweeping, while it might seem simple, is a meticulous process requiring expert care to be done correctly and is vital for keeping your chimney operational and your home and family protected.

Using your fireplace or stove results in your chimney handling harmful byproducts from burning fuel, like gases, smoke, particles, and minerals, by containing and removing them safely. Debris and creosote can build up over time, causing blockages and fires. A Washington chimney sweep professional, trained in this field, will remove these hazards thoroughly and safely, enabling your chimney to function correctly.

You can stay safe and save money over time by investing in the affordable and important practice of chimney sweeping as part of preventative maintenance.

Annual cleaning and inspection are required for regularly used chimneys, but even chimneys used infrequently should be inspected and swept at least once to guarantee proper and safe functioning.

Setting up for your chimney sweeping appointment is a cinch:

Wait at least 24 hours before your appointment to have a fire in your fireplace.

From the area around your stove or fireplace, move furniture and breakable objects several feet away.

We request you to keep your pets in another room, not close to the work area.

Taking about an hour to 90 minutes, your chimney sweep should finish the job, and the following can be expected from your technician:

Investigate the accessible interior and exterior segments of your chimney.

Look into factory-built units for possible cracks.

Sweep your chimney with special brushes.

Examine the chimney liner, checking for missing joints, gaps, and cracks.

Take care of your chimney's smoke chamber, smoke shelf, and damper by scrubbing them with our hand tools.

Take care of ashes and clean your firebox.

In a fireplace or stove, eliminate the grate and give it a brush.

Check for any fire safety hazards.

Traditional chimney sweeping with brushes and rods has persisted, despite the advancement of chimney tools.

What to Keep in Mind When Hiring a Chimney Sweep

The chimney sweeping industry isn't regulated federally, so anyone can buy some tools and brushes and claim to be capable. Unfortunately, hiring an unqualified team can lead to costly mistakes.

By maintaining chimneys properly, one can avoid numerous fires and fireplace issues, while unqualified chimney sweeps and their sub-par repair work can amplify problems and dangers. We have even had to support homeowners who have been tricked by some of these unqualified organizations.

The Auburn region is home to several chimney sweep companies, and you may be curious about the differences in education, training, experience, and standards between them.

It's a pity that not all chimney sweeps consider your long-term safety. To guarantee that the company you pick, either 365 Chimney Sweeps or another, is licensed, insured, and certified, choose one that specializes in chimney and fireplace care.

At the start, make sure the company has a valid license and insurance, and it's always a wise move to inquire about references. Equally important is to look for CSIA certification in Washington chimney sweep services.

The Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA), a non-profit organization governed by volunteer industry professionals, has the goal of keeping homeowners safe and protecting them from fire risks. They have achieved this since the 1980s by providing the CSIA Certified Chimney Sweep credential.
