What Type of Chimneys Should be Cleaned?
Have a chimney? If Yes, you will need it cleaned
A wood burning chimney as well as any chimney that vents a fuel burning appliance, even non-wood-burning ones such as gas-fired or oil-fired boilers, furnaces, or water heaters, should be inspected and cleaned.
why clean the chimney?
The largest concern about owning a home with a chimney is the potential for chimney fires and blockage due to animals.

Although creosote isn’t a problem with gas or oil, there are other possible safety concerns
Oil burning appliances still have soot build up that can block the chimney and cause deadly carbon monoxide to leak in the home
what is creosote?
Fires occur when creosote builds-up on the lining of your wood burning fireplace chimney. This is also the case with wood burning stoves. It is a highly combustible by-product of burning wood. It is black or brown in color and can be tar-like, drippy, hardened or shiny in nature. If it builds up in large quantities and the temperature of the flue is high enough the result could be a chimney fire.
Both gas and oil byproducts can combine with water that condenses from the exhaust to create a solution that is corrosive enough to damage the flue liner and eventually, allow flue gasses into your home
Build up on the chimney flue restricts air flow causing the appliance and/or boilers to malfunction or burn richer
1.
STEP ONE
First, the hose from our power vacuum truck is hooked into the base of the chimney.
2.
STEP TWO
Next, the technician will go to the place where the chimney exits.
3.
STEP THREE
Then, the technician will use a chimney brush and clean the entire flue from top to bottom as our vacuum truck removes any debris.
4.
STEP FOUR
Additionally, the technician will inspect the chimney cap to ensure it is in good working condition. If not, the technician will recommend a replacement.
5.
STEP FIVE
As the lint and debris becomes dislodged, the negative suction pulls it back into the vacuum truck. Leaving no mess behind and ensuring a proper chimney cleaning.

Preventative Mintenance Is key!
As a general rule, for every dollar spent on preventative maintenance, you will save at least five dollars in subsequent expenses. Studies by General Motors and 3M both state that spending one dollar on preventative maintenance could save you anywhere from 7-35 dollars including but not limited to: lost production, added inventory, labor, parts duplication and equipment redundancy.
