Complete Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Cleaning
Protect your residence by eliminating soot and creosote before they turn into a fire hazard. You will reduce chimney temperatures, improve draft, and keep combustion byproducts moving safely outdoors. Start with a cool system, proper PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Perform flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, proceeding top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Vacuum with a HEPA system to contain fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that require mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Remove debris from the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and ensure the cap and spark arrestor are unobstructed. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Complete with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and consistent draft for safe operation.
Thorough Safety Inspections and Evaluations
Before using your fireplace this season, book a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to ensure the safety and code compliance of your heating system. A Level I inspection checks clearances and general condition, whereas Level II incorporates detailed video examination of accessible spaces and flues. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates hard-to-reach spaces when serious issues are identified.
During your assessment, we record the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and draft performance and termination heights. We perform ventilation testing to ensure proper exhaust and sufficient makeup air. Our comprehensive review examines the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll receive a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to optimize system efficiency and resolve safety issues.
