When you have a fireplace, the risk of a fire in your home is something that is always in the back of your mind. The Mad Hatter Chimney Service would like to put your mind at ease with our array of chimney services. We have seen firsthand how devastating a house fire can be due to a chimney that was not maintained properly.

When you burn wood or fire logs (Duraflame, Pine Mountain.etc.) the smoke that travels up the chimney contains small particles of tar and unburned wood that collect on the chimney's walls. This build-up is still very flammable and can catch on fire. This a tougher question than it sounds. The quick simple answer is: The National Fire Protection Association standard 211 says, Chimneys, fireplaces, and vents shall be inspected at least once a year for soundness, freedom from deposits, and correct clearances.

Do you know what the first two items are on the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Fire Safety Checklist? The woodstove or fireplace has been installed according to existing building codes and manufacturer instructions. The chimney and stovepipe are checked frequently during the heating season for creosote buildup and swept when necessary. That should be enough to get your attention and make you aware of how important chimney sweeping is to the safety of your home and family. If that is not enough to shake your tree, the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA - www.csia.org) is packed with information regarding chimney cleaning, inspections, and even what you need to look for when hiring a chimney company.

Taking a working chimney for granted can be costly as certain repairs are commonly required over a lifetime. You might see things such as bricks flaking or your chimney leaning that indicates your chimney will require inspection or repair. However, some repairs can only be identified by a professional. Nesting animals, harsh weather, and general wear and tear can cause damage to the brick and mortar internally. This can lead to leaks, breaks, and cracks that require chimney and masonry repairs. The best way to ensure that the system is operating properly is to have an inspection performed by a fireplace and chimney professional.
