Atlanta chimney cleaning & chimney sweep

Your fireplace chimney should be periodically inspected to make sure it won't catch fire or cause dangerous carbon monoxide to enter your home when a wood or gas fire is burning. Our Atlanta chimney cleaning technician from Reliable Duct Cleaning can conduct a chimney inspection to show you if your chimney needs servicing or cleaning.

Which kind of chimney do you have? Older homes have handmade fireplaces and chimneys made of brick or stone, and they need chimney cleaning whenever creosote or soot builds up to one-quarter of an inch. Newer homes have factory-built fireplaces that can use metal ducts running through the chimney. These need to be cleaned whenever soot that could catch fire builds up inside the chimney duct.

If you burn gas in your fireplace instead of wood logs, your chimney won't have any soot buildup, but should be periodically inspected to make sure a bird or animal hasn't made a nest inside that could pose a fire hazard the next time you light your fireplace. Another health problem with gas fireplaces exists if the chimney doesn't vent correctly, causing carbon monoxide to enter your home.
