Every homeowner should have their chimney swept and cleaned at least once a year, especially if they use their fireplace regularly. A thorough chimney cleaning will ensure the system functions efficiently while preventing soot and other harmful contaminants from funneling into your home. We recommend having your chimney inspected and cleaned during the fall so you can use your fireplace throughout the winter season.

If you haven’t used your fireplace in a year or more, it’s still a good idea to have it cleaned and inspected annually. Yearly cleaning will increase your chimney’s longevity while preventing future structural damage.

At Middletown Chimney Repair, we use an efficient chimney cleaning process that guarantees superior results. We start by inspecting your chimney system to ensure everything is up to code and functioning correctly.

Once we check your chimney and its components, our team uses professional-grade brushes, scrapers, and poles to clean your chimney’s interior. We also place drop cloths down to catch any falling debris during the cleaning process. After that, we clean up any remaining soot or debris and leave you with an immaculate chimney system that you can enjoy all year long.

Reduces Chimney Fires

Dirty chimneys pose a more significant health threat than most people realize. As stated before, the toxins within your chimney can deplete your home’s indoor air quality, putting you and your family at risk. However, these toxins also present a severe fire hazard.

Burning wood creates a highly flammable substance called creosote that attaches to your chimney’s interior. Creosote is one of the leading causes of chimney fires, making it an imminent threat.

The Middletown Chimney Repair team uses specialized tools and cleaning supplies to eliminate creosote within your chimney. We go over every inch of your chimney’s interior to ensure it’s creosote-free and safe to use.

Reduces Carbon Monoxide

Burning wood creates an odorless, harmful gas called carbon monoxide. The gas is highly toxic and often leads to severe health issues and even death. Common carbon monoxide poisoning symptoms include:

• Headaches
• Nausea
• Dizziness
• Weakness
• Shortness of breath
• Confusion
• Blurred vision
• Loss of consciousness

Clean chimneys pull carbon monoxide out of homes when the fireplace is in use, allowing residents to enjoy a calm fire without putting their health in jeopardy. However, dirty chimneys have trouble pulling the gas out of the residence, causing it to leak into the home.

Routine chimney cleaning ensures your chimney functions at its optimal level, allowing it to pull out carbon monoxide without issue. We remove anything obstructing its vent and ensure everything is safe before completing the cleaning process.
