When does a chimney require cleaning?

The presence in a chimney of deposits of soot or creosote in excess of 3 mm thick will indicate the
need for immediate cleaning, possible modification of burning procedures, and more frequent
inspections.

One of the most common questions I get asked is
How often should my chimney be inspected/cleaned?

a) at intervals not greater than 12 months,
b) at the time of addition of any appliance, and
c) after any chimney fire.
2) Chimneys, flues and flue pipes shall be cleaned as often as necessary to keep them free from dangerous accumulations of
combustible deposits.
