Everyone wants to save time and money on the care and maintenance of their home or business. Often times, it is just human nature to wait until the last minute to contact a technician about even the most routine maintenance on our heating systems, stoves and fireplaces. Here are 5 reasons to get ahead of the game and schedule your annual services today:

  

Reason One: Spring will bring unwelcome visitors. Now is the time to make sure that your chimney cap is intact and performing properly to ensure that birds, animals, leaves and debrit are not taking up residence. These unwelcome guests can leave a stinking mess that will take hours to clean up.

  

Reason Two:  High Temps will compromise even the tiniest of cracks. A harmless looking hairline crack in your tile flue liner will open up under high temperatures, possibly starting a fire. An annual inspection
 performed before summer will help discover any missing or cracked tiles and bricks as well as deteriorating mortar.

  

Reason Three: Sweeps Are Overworked in Autumn. By scheduling your annual maintenance now, you will be able to select a much more convenient time for your schedule to have a technician visit your home. By waiting until the cold weather hits again, you will run into a tough time scheduling your appointment.

  

Reason Four: Hot Weather will bring out Damp Creosote's Odor. You can avoid the unpleasant smells that summer downdrafts will bring into your home by having a sweep clean and deodorize.

  

Reason Five: Make Sure Your Upgrades Are Being Vented Properly. Many homeowners have recently installed new heating systems that utilize Gas Units. Now is a good time to make sure that a proper vent pipe was installed. A Gas furnace should never vent into an unlined masonry chimney due to the potential of excessive moisture and acids in the flue.

  

If you have any questions about your chimney and/or venting system, please give us a ring at 888-CHIM-FIX or contact us online. We look forward to helping you add value and ensure safety for your home.  

Chimney Sweeps of Sherwood Forest installs and services high quality Lyemance stainless steel chimney dampers to prevent those annoying stink bugs from entering through your chimney.

  

A Lyemance damper and cap combo will also help reduce air loss by 90% over a traditional damper.
