Top Reasons Why Chimney Sweeping is Vital

While chimney sweeping might come across as a simple task, it is a complex process that needs expert care to be done properly, and it plays a crucial role in keeping your chimney in working order and your home and family safe.

As your fireplace or stove operates, the chimney's role is to safely contain and eliminate hazardous substances produced by burning fuel, including gases, smoke, particles, and minerals. Debris and creosote can accumulate over time, leading to blockages and fires. A competent Arizona chimney sweep professional will clean these obstructions thoroughly and safely, ensuring your chimney performs its job properly.

The cost-effective and significant practice of chimney sweeping, as part of preventative maintenance, can keep you safe and provide long-term financial savings.

For chimneys that are used regularly, annual cleaning and inspection are necessary, but even chimneys that are rarely used should be examined and swept at least once to guarantee safe and proper operation.

Making preparations for your chimney sweeping appointment is a snap:

Do not have a fire in your fireplace for at least one day before your appointment.

Shift any breakable items and furniture several feet away from the region around your stove or fireplace.

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

Your technician is expected to take around one to one and a half hours to finish the chimney sweep job, and will:

Look over the reachable portions of your chimney's interior and exterior.

Study factory-built units for cracks.

Employ special brushes for chimney sweeping.

Examine the chimney liner for gaps, cracks, and absent joints.

Scrub the smoke chamber, smoke shelf, and damper in your chimney using our dependable hand tools.

Tidy your firebox by clearing away ashes.

Clear the fireplace or stove grate and give it a brushing.

Analyze potential fire safety hazards.

Chimney sweeping with brushes and rods remains a traditional practice, even with the progress of chimney tools over the years.

What to Seek in a Chimney Sweep When Hiring

The lack of federal regulation in the chimney sweeping industry means that anyone can purchase tools and brushes and claim expertise. Unfortunately, this can lead to costly mistakes when hiring the wrong team.

Proper maintenance can help prevent many chimney fires and fireplace issues, while unqualified chimney sweeps and their inadequate repair work can worsen problems and dangers. We've had to assist homeowners who've been scammed by some of these unprofessional companies.

Given the multitude of chimney sweep companies in the Chandler region, you might wonder about the unique aspects of their education, training, experience, and standards.

Sadly, not all chimney sweep companies share the same commitment to your long-term safety. When choosing between Earthwise Chimney Service or another, make sure they have the necessary licensing, insurance, and certification for chimney and fireplace care.

First, be sure the company holds a license and insurance, and it's always a good plan to request references. Also, keep an eye out for CSIA certification within Arizona chimney sweep services.

With volunteer industry professionals at the helm, the non-profit Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA) is committed to keeping homeowners safe and shielding them from fire dangers. Since the 1980s, they have been achieving this through the CSIA Certified Chimney Sweep credential.
