How important is it to have a certified chimney sweep inspect your chimney?  VERY IMPORTANT!

Chimney fires usually start when the fire is first started up or the appliance is reloaded . Flames reach up and can catch the creosote on fire. Restricted air supply, unseasoned wood and cooler-than normal chimney temperatures are all factors that can accelerate the buildup of creosote on chimney flue walls. 

Preventive maintenance can prevent this from happening.

Be smart.  Be safe.  Have a certified chimney sweep inspect your chimney (or clean it) once a year!  If it has been longer than a year since you've had this preventative maintenance done call Big Ash Fireplace & Stoves.  It only takes about a quarter of an inch of creosote to catch on fire.  Be smart.  Be safe.  Schedule your inspection today.
