Current Temperatures are more than 15 below normal!
here is a few tips to help keeping safe while heating your homes.

Make sure the damper is fully opened and venting properly before starting a fire.

Seeing and smelling large amounts of smoke? A blocked chimney cap is often the reason for this make sure to get it inspected and cleaned!

Any wood is good as long as it is properly seasoned! You can buy a digital moisture meter to help determine going by the type of wood. Most firewood you are looking around 15-20% ideally.

After Burn season is over its always a great idea to have it inspected/cleaned and be ready for next year!

A quick reminder that when a chimney is swept, we require there to be no active coals due to our vacuum using a paper HEPA filter.

A screen on top of your chimney is great and is used to keep animals out and sparks in; however, if clogged with creosote, it will cause your chimney flue to become inoperable. If you have a clear view of your chimney, you might be able to see for yourself if the screen is open or starting to get plugged. If you have any questions, please call us at 616-453-8400.

Stockings above the fireplace is a tradition that started in 1832 when the poem "The Night Before Christmas" first mentioned it. Stockings can cause house fires if they are too close to the fireplace opening. Removing the stockings while the fireplace is being used is recommended and will help ensure the safety of using your fireplace this winter season.
