"Made the appointment Thursday for Saturday at 2:30. Saturday 2:30 I get a knock on the door, Brian introduced himself... clean, friendly, and ready to hit the chimney. Gets his equipment, and gets to work. He cleaned out and inspected the firebox. Checked out the flue and the protective screen then cleaned the chimney. When he was done with the inside, he went up on the roof and finished inspecting the chimney from the top making sure that everything was functioning as it should. Came back in, packed up all his gear, made sure the area was clean. I asked about their "Fire and Ice" system. Gave me the info I needed, no hard sell simply answered my questions. Based on this experience I will use them again to clean my other fireplace and other services that they offer."
Black stains shows evidence of hazardous cracks in firebox. Top 6” and lintel bar removed from fireplace. Not ever a good idea. Potentially making fireplace unsafe to use.

"It went great! Tim was very professional. He kept in good contact with me before he showed up, and did a nice job cleaning or chimney and fireplace. He also inspected my chimney and fireplace to give me a heads up on any potential future problems. I will definitely call them in the future."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Your fireplace flue is open when the chimney is unsealed and open to the outside air and sky. That’s why one of the best ways to figure out if your flue is open is to visually check for daylight inside of your chimney—or to feel for a draft, which may be generated by the difference in temperatures inside and outside of your home.

There are several ways to determine if your chimney or fireplace damper is open or closed. A simple method is to check for airflow by placing your hand near the fireplace opening; if you feel a draft or hear wind whistling, the damper is open. An open damper might also make the room feel cooler, similar to the outdoor temperature, or cause your HVAC system to work harder than usual. For a more definitive test, you can try a visual inspection, although it may be difficult to see. Alternatively, you can light a small piece of paper and observe the smoke; if it is drawn up the chimney, the damper is open. Always use the damper handle to adjust its position.

The time required for a chimney inspection depends on the inspection level. A Level 1 inspection typically takes between 45 minutes and two hours, with an average of about an hour and a half. A Level 2 inspection usually takes less than two hours. A more in-depth Level 3 inspection can take up to five hours, or even multiple days if it requires removing materials. The total duration also depends on the chimney's size, condition, and how long it has been since its last inspection; chimneys with severe damage will require a longer inspection.

To reset an electric fireplace, first shut the unit off using the control panel or remote control. Make sure the unit is entirely shut down, then unplug it from the power outlet. Wait five to 10 minutes, then plug the fireplace back in and turn it on. This process should reset the electric fireplace. After resetting, make sure to set the thermostat, timer, and other programmable settings to suit your preferences.

Fireplace inserts are essentially wood, gas, or electric stoves designed to fit into an existing masonry fireplace. People opt to install inserts because traditional fireplaces can lose a lot of heat, require more maintenance, and may impact indoor air quality. A fireplace insert installer near you can help you decide which brand and size fit your home.
