Chimneys are an important part of your home, and they need to be kept clean and in good condition to work properly. A dirty or clogged chimney can cause several problems, including smoke and fire damage, health hazards, and even structural damage to your home. That’s why it’s important to have your chimney cleaned regularly.
A chimney sweeping and cleaning service is a business or company that specializes in keeping your chimney clean. These services are usually available on either a one-time basis, for example, during new home construction or on an ongoing monthly basis.
A dirty chimney can be a serious fire hazard. A build-up of soot and creosote can easily ignite, causing a dangerous fire in your home. Having your chimney cleaned regularly can help reduce the risk of a house fire.
A clean chimney performs better than a dirty one. It allows smoke and fumes to escape properly, preventing them from building up in the chimney and causing damage. It also allows your fireplace to function more efficiently, saving you money on your heating bills.
A dirty chimney will cause excess moisture to build up inside your home, creating a breeding ground for toxic mould and mildew, which can lead to health problems. It can also cause you to have bad breath, reduce your indoor air quality, and make it difficult to enjoy the indoors. It takes just a few hours for your chimney to get dirty, but it takes several days for it to air out.
It’s been said that all the creosote build-up in a dirty chimney can add up to 10 lbs. That means after just one year, your bricks can become 10% less strong. After several years, the damage can be fairly significant, putting your chimney at risk of collapse.
Chimneys are an important part of any home’s exterior. If yours is dirty, it will make your entire house look bad—not to mention potentially making your neighbours envious! You can improve the appearance of your chimney by having it cleaned, which will allow you to preserve its structural integrity.
