How Often Should You Clean Your Chimney?

The quick simple answer is at least once per year. The National Fire Protection Association standard states that “Chimneys, fireplaces, and vents shall be inspected at least once a year for soundness, freedom from deposits, and correct clearances. Cleaning, maintenance, and repairs shall be done if necessary.” This is the national safety standard and the correct way to approach chimney care. Even if you don’t use your chimney often, a yearly cleaning and sweeping can make sure that any debris such as animal nests are not obstructing the flue.

How to Choose a Chimney Sweep?

Unfortunately, the chimney trade is not regulated and in many states chimney sweeps are not required to be licensed. Not to mention that opening a chimney cleaning business is a relatively small capital investment meaning that almost anyone including those without any education, training, experience or even a working knowledge of proper tools and/or equipment can become a chimney sweep. As a result, ill-equipped and ill-prepared individuals are free to offer their “services” to residential and commercial owners.

Make sure you choose a chimney cleaning company that is fully licensed and insured.
