Chimney sweeping is much more regulated and standardized today than it ever has been in the past. Trade organizations like the National Chimney Sweep Guild and the Chimney Safety Institute of America provide training and certification, so you can be sure that your chimney sweep will be knowledgeable and professional.

If you have a functioning chimney or wood stove, it's important to establish a regular cleaning schedule that can free your chimney of creosote. This should also include an inspection looking for any cracks, holes, or other damage to the flue.

Adding a direct-vent gas insert to your fireplace is a great way to make it more functional. A fireplace insert uses outside air for combustion, which means the room does not lose any air.

Hot air rising through a chimney leaves deposits of soot, ash, and creosote behind. Modern chimney sweeps are able to remove deposits to maintain the beauty and safety of your home or business.

The chimney flue is one of the most important parts of a chimney. This tunnel, often lined with ceramic, clay tile and other heat-resistant materials, is designed to vent the smoke and gases of a fire outside the home.

To minimize the frequency you need to have your chimney swept, it’s recommended that you burn only dry, properly seasoned wood. Burning unseasoned or greed woods will end up coating and clogging the chimney with soot and creosote much more quickly.

Regular use of a chimney sweep leads to a more vibrant fire that more easily warms your home. Dirty chimneys lead to less efficient fires that can also produce more toxic gases.

Ever wonder why your fireplace and chimney tend to smell in the summer? This is due to creosote deposits in the chimney, which become odorous in the summer when the humidity is high and the air conditioning is on, drawing air down the chimney. The best way to avoid this is to have your chimney cleaned annually.

Older fireplaces may not have effective damper systems to lock out cold air in winter (and hot air in summer). Instead of sealing off a functional fireplace because of drafts, some consumers are adding top sealing chimney cap systems that include built-in damper assemblies.

Did you know that Benjamin Franklin played an important role in the invention of fireplaces? He created the first freestanding firebox, known as the Franklin stove, after discovering that fireplaces lost a lot of heat through the wall.
