Check Your Calendar

The National Fire Protection Association recommends having your chimney professionally cleaned and inspected at least once a year. If you’ve gone a year or more without having your chimney checked out, it’s best to go ahead and make an appointment with your local chimney sweep. Experienced chimney technicians like the ones at Sootmaster will make sure your chimney is clean and working properly.

Fireplace Odors

Do you have unpleasant smells coming from your fireplace? It’s most likely due to a buildup of soot and creosote, which are byproducts of burning wood. Creosote can stick to the walls of your chimney and is the leading cause of chimney fires.

Black Spots on Fireplace Walls

Have you noticed a black, oily substance on the walls of your fireplace? This is a buildup of creosote and can be removed by a chimney technician. It is important to remove creosote to prevent chimney fires. 

Weak Fires

If it’s difficult to start a fire in your fireplace, your chimney could be clogged. Poorly burning fires can also be a result of a malfunctioning damper. Both issues restrict the amount of oxygen that reaches your fire, stopping it from burning properly. These problems can be fixed by a knowledgeable chimney technician.

Animals In Your Chimney

Animals and animal nests can restrict the flow of air in your chimney or even catch fire. If you hear noises coming from your chimney or notice nests on top of it, call your local chimney sweep to have the animals safely removed.

However, the last thing that may come to mind is one of the most important: your chimney.

Look out for these five signs it’s time to have your chimney professionally cleaned.

Chimney Sweep

Cold Chimney Syndrome

If the air in the chimney is too cold, that cold air could block the warm air from going out the chimney. This causes the replacement air (air that draws into the fire) not to be supplied to the fire, with no updraft air won’t  move to fuel the fire and causes it to go out. Or it could be that your firewood isn't dry enough to start a hot fire and get a good updraft., or it is freezing cold and your fireplace is on an outside wall. It may be that you need more small pieces of tinder to get the fire going. Your damper may not be open all the way or not working correctly. A professional chimney sweep can find and install the proper one for your chimney as well as give your fireplace an inspection to see why your chimney is staying so cold.
