Why inspect chimneys
The Purpose of a
Chimney Inspection is to:
·
Assure chimney
integrity for all fuels: oil, gas, wood or coal.
·
Check for injuries and
voids that may allow exhaust into the home. These conditions often can only be
discovered by inspection.
·
Catch problems before
they cause expensive trouble.
·
Provide peace of mind.
·
Note flammable
creosote which builds up on the walls of the chimney with use and recommend
appropriate cleaning method.
·
Alert you to evidence
of water penetration. Rainwater penetration damage is a major cause of chimney
deterioration.
Preventive maintenance
is always more cost-effective than making repairs that could have been avoided.
Annual inspections are critical for regularly used chimneys. Even if used
occasionally, a chimney system should be routinely inspected and cleaned, if
necessary. The importance of regular chimney maintenance is emphasized by the
NFPA. This nonprofit organization, dedicated solely to fire prevention, states:
Chimneys, fireplaces and vents shall be
inspected at least once a year for soundness, freedom from deposits, and correct
clearances. Cleaning, maintenance, and repairs shall be done if necessary.
