What Should I Know About Chimney Or Stove Care?
Now that you have decided to invest in the economical option of a closed combustion wood burning fireplace, you will need to keep a few things in mind.
You will need a professional chimney sweep done at least annually. Arrange this service before the winter months.
Only remove ash (if possible) when it has totally cooled down. Hot ash can be dangerous and should be handled with care.
Keep furniture at least 95 centimetres away from a fireplace and use a screen if you have an open fireplace.
Inspect the surrounding area for heat damage and attend to that as soon as possible.
Only use dry or seasoned wood in a wood burning stove.
Pay attention to opening the damper when your fire is lit and to close it when your fireplace is not in use.
Investigate the need for a chimney cap to keep unwanted animals out of your chimney.
Safety Tips
Maintaining a standard of safety and good fireplace hygiene will go a long way to protecting your family, pets and home from possible fire related disasters.
Examine your fireplace and surrounds for heat damage or cracks. These situations should be addressed immediately.
Inspect the interior of your fireplace, if a lining has deteriorated, it will need to be repaired professionally. Ignoring this will result in permanent damage due to excessive heat build-up.
If you discover smoke stains on the walls or roof in close proximity to your fireplace, there may be a gap that needs to be sealed or fixed. Smoke stains could also indicate that there is a problem with your damper.
Have your chimney serviced annually and always check for obstructions, debris etc. before lighting your fire.
A fire extinguisher should be on hand at all times and this apparatus should be in proper working order.
Teach children and pets (if possible) to steer clear from a fireplace as even closed fireplaces can be hot to the touch.
