Regular chimney cleaning can prevent carbon monoxide poisoning and house and chimney fires in a house, apartment complex, or condominium.

Without proper chimney maintenance, heating systems can be hazardous because they frequently cause fires or release poisonous gases into the home, which can cause severe damage, illness, or even death. Tar and soot from wood and fuel combustion must be removed by a professional chimney sweep when they accumulate in a chimney. Modern heating appliances are more efficient than ever before, but the excess condensation they produce causes more blocked chimneys than ever before. Therefore, it is crucial that every household have a regular inspection by a certified chimney sweep.
