Chimney Sweeping
Chimney sweeping is the sweeping process of removing soot and creosote that builds up in your flue exposing you to a possible chimney fire. All types of chimneys and appliances should be inspected once a year and cleaned. All flues are swept with a diameter brush used specifically for certain applications. We use atmospheric vacuums equipped with hepa filters to contain all the dust, stopping it from coming into your home. At Sweep-a-Chim, we have the upmost respect for your home making us “Known for Our Neatness.
Chimney Relining
Chimneys are constructed of multiple masonry materials giving it much thickness. The passage way that conveys flue gases and excess heat is called a flue. This flue is the part of the chimney that needs sweeping to remove excess creosote from the system. Creosote is the flammable by-product of incomplete combustion that adheres itself to the walls of the flue. If the flue is unswept and has this build up, it can cause a chimney fire. After a chimney fire has occurred, it will require an inspection and possible RELINING. RELINING removes the bad terra cotta tile flue and replaces it with a stainless steel liner to create a sound chimney venting system.
