Q: What are chimney crowns made of?

• <div><p>Chimney crowns may be stone, concrete, or metal but most crowns are made of concrete. It&rsquo;s not recommended to build chimney crowns with mortar (which is different from concrete) due to it&rsquo;s weaker composition (especially when exposed to the outside elements). Most chimney crowns are custom made to fit your home&rsquo;s specific chimney. </p></div>

Q: How long does a chimney crown last?

• <div><p>A properly constructed and maintained chimney crown can last 50 to 75 years. However, its lifespan can be significantly shorter&mdash;20 years or less&mdash;if it was poorly constructed, improperly installed, or damaged. Factors like using the wrong materials or failing to prepare the brick around the flue can lead to moisture buildup and premature breakdown, potentially resulting in a more costly rebuild.</p></div>

Q: Do gas fireplaces need servicing?

• <div><p>Gas-burning fireplaces need servicing to keep them in proper working order. You should call a fireplace pro to inspect and clean your gas-burning fireplace at least once per year or whenever problems arise. Servicing your gas-burning fireplace will help it function properly while also extending its lifespan. It&rsquo;ll also ensure that your fireplace is operating safely.</p></div>

Q: Can you use a fireplace with a cracked flue?

• <div><p>You can, but you shouldn&rsquo;t. While you can still start a fire in your fireplace, the smoke and other fumes won&rsquo;t have a proper way to escape if the flue is cracked. By continuing to operate your fireplace, wood stove, or furnace, you are putting your home at risk of absorbing toxic byproducts of the fire source.</p></div>

Q: How do I know if my chimney is safe to use?

• <div><p>One of the best ways to know your chimney is good to go on any given night is to simply look up into your flue with a flashlight. If you see a thick buildup of creosote&mdash;a shiny, dark substance that looks like tar&mdash;it&rsquo;s best to have your fireplace professionally cleaned before you go ahead with the burn. Additionally, having your fireplace professionally inspected once per year can also help increase your peace of mind and keep your family and your home safe.</p></div>
