Comprehensive Chimney Maintenance and Creosote Cleaning

You will decrease chimney temperatures, optimize draft, and ensure combustion byproducts flowing safely outdoors. Initialize with a cool system, suitable PPE, and containment to shield interiors. Execute flue brushing with correctly fitted poly or steel rods, working top-to-bottom to remove all stages of buildup. Clean with a HEPA system to control fine particulates. Conduct creosote testing to identify glazed deposits that demand mechanical scraping or chemical treatment. Clean the smoke shelf, firebox, and damper tracks, and verify the cap and spark arrestor are clear. Dispose of debris safely in metal containers. Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to validate effective removal and stable draft for dependable operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Before using your fireplace this season, arrange a thorough inspection based on NFPA 211 to ensure the safety and code compliance of your chimney and fireplace system. A Level I inspection checks clearances and general condition, and Level II adds comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
Throughout our inspection, we examine the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and proper termination and draft levels. We conduct ventilation testing to verify adequate makeup air and proper exhaust. Our inspection includes damper operation, firebox and smoke chamber condition, appliance connections, gas log safety, and carbon monoxide pathways. You'll obtain a detailed report with photos and suggested improvements to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
