- Wood Stoves: Wood stoves burn seasoned wood logs to generate heat, and are typically made of cast iron or steel. Modern wood stoves are designed to be highly efficient and environmentally friendly, while providing a charming and rustic aesthetic.
- Wood Cookstoves: Wood cookstoves are versatile appliances that combine cooking functionality with wood heating capabilities. Like classic-looking wood stoves, modern cookstoves are designed to be highly efficient, serving not only as a practical cooking tool, but also as an effective way to heat your space.
- Gas Log Sets: Gas logs are ceramic logs designed to mimic real wood in a gas fireplace system. They can be fueled by natural gas or propane, and they are known for their convenience and clean-burning properties. They’re easy to use, require minimal maintenance, and offer consistent and controllable heat output.
- Fireplace Inserts: Fireplace inserts are heating units installed inside an existing open fireplace – they’re the quickest and easiest way to switch from wood to gas or boost the efficiency of your open wood fireplace. They often come with features like thermostats and remote controls, and they’re easy to operate and low maintenance.
When Should I Call a Chimney Sweep?
A lot of times we get calls from customers when things have already taken a turn for the worse. That’s why we also believe in educating our customers – because we truly believe prevention is the best medicine. The sooner you spot damage and call us in to address it, the better off you’ll be in the long run.
If you see any of the following issues, give us a call right away, as they could signal a bigger problem hidden out of the sight:
- Staining on the walls or ceiling around your fireplace
- Cracks or crumbling in your chimney structure
- Soot stains on your walls or around your system
- Rust in or around your chimney, like on the damper, chase cover, or cap
- Signs of a chimney fire
- Damage from severe weather, like lightning or high winds
When it comes to chimneys, stoves, and fireplaces, we believe in playing it safe…rather than being sorry later. We rarely have a customer that was sorry they called us out, even when it turned out to not be such a big deal. We have, however, had plenty who were kicking themselves for not taking the proactive steps – like having their system inspected and annually swept – when they had to call us out after a chimney fire.
Make the right choice – reach out today by phone or by contacting us online.
What Causes Chimney Leaks?
A leaky chimney not only makes your system unsafe for use, but it can cause damage to spread throughout your fireplace, wood stove, and home. Unfortunately, though, chimney leaks are one of the most common issues a fireplace might face. So, what are the most common reasons a chimney leak might occur?
- Missing or Cracked Chimney Crown: The chimney crown is the concrete slab on the topmost part of the chimney structure that protects your chimney from the weather. Gradually, the crown can become fragile and crack due to the amount of moisture it absorbs and the temperature changes it undergoes.
- Cracked Chimney Masonry: Masonry is durable, but it’s not damage-proof. Over time, the masonry materials used to build the chimney can deteriorate due to weather exposure, the freeze/thaw process, natural decay, and more.
- Lack of Waterproofing: Bricks and mortar soak in water quite easily, after which this moisture can cause damage from the inside out. Fortunately, waterproofing products are available to help homeowners avoid deterioration and all kinds of expensive repair work – as well as issues triggered by the freeze/thaw process.
- Chimney Cap Problems: The chimney cap is essentially your chimney’s umbrella – a protective metal covering installed at the top of the flue or crown to keep rain, snow, animals, and debris out. If the chimney cap is damaged, missing, or improperly installed, water can enter the chimney, leading to leaks.
- Faulty Craftsmanship: There is a science to designing and building a chimney and human error is an unfortunate reality. If your chimney has not been built at the correct slope or hasn’t been properly sealed, it may be susceptible to leaks.
- Extreme Weather: Intense storms with heavy rain, hail, high winds, and snow can worsen chimney problems you weren’t previously aware of or create new issues altogether. You may not be able to control the weather, but you can stay on top of potential chimney troubles with regular chimney inspections.
- Damaged or Missing Chimney Flashing: Chimney flashing helps protect the base of your chimney from water. Flashing is usually sealed with a waterproof sealant. When the flashing is missing or damaged, or if the sealant erodes, your chimney will be exposed and vulnerable. Defective flashing is often the root cause of chimney leaks.
The good news is that by knowing what causes your leaky chimney problems, you can work with your chimney sweep to avoid them down the line.
