Seasonal Update
With the colder weather of the season comes warm sweaters and hot cocoa. Unfortunately, the dropping temperatures also bring the possibility of damage to your chimney. Although the South is known for its mild winters, locals know that it can still get pretty cold down here. Freezing temperatures are not unheard of, and they can negatively affect your chimney.
This fall and winter, it is important to keep an eye out for signs of chimney damage due to cold weather. One of these signs is spalling. Spalling occurs when water absorbed by porous bricks freezes and expands, causing faces and pieces of brick to break off. This can weaken the structural integrity of the chimney, leading to even more issues. So, be sure to keep an eye on your chimney this season, and if you notice any spalling, contact the experts at Sootmaster. We will be happy to assist with repairs.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How often should I get my chimney swept?
According to the National Fire Protection Standard 211, “Chimneys, fireplaces, and vents shall be inspected once a year for soundness, freedom from deposits, and correct clearances. Cleaning, maintenance, and repairs shall be done if necessary.”
My fireplace stinks, especially in the summer. What can I do?
Creosote, a natural byproduct of wood burning, can build up in deposits. Creosote deposits can cause unpleasant odors in your fireplace. In the summer, the humidity can worsen the smell. A chimney sweep and cleaning will remove the creosote buildup, which will take care of the smell. It is important to have your chimney swept and cleaned at least annually to prevent too much creosote buildup, which could lead to chimney fires.
I have a gas fireplace. Should this chimney be checked too?
Without a doubt! Although gas is usually a clean-burning fuel, the chimney can become non-functional from bird nests or other debris blocking the flue. Additionally, modern furnaces may cause problems with the typical flues invented to vent the older generation of furnaces. While we can still sweep and inspect them, Sootmaster is not licensed to operate on any gas fireplace. Contact a gas certified plumber or your local gas company if you need more extensive work done on your gas fireplace.
What’s safe to burn in the fireplace?
You should only burn dry, well-seasoned wood. Other flammable objects such as paper burn at much higher temperatures, which can cause any buildup to ignite.
