"Our furnace had to be replaced in the middle of a cold snap (-8 degrees). I took three quotes and compared the prices on-line. Vernon Heating was the best price and had the best furnace brand (Trane). They installed the next day, showed up on time, did a fantastic installation, cleaned up, and made sure everything was done correctly. No short cuts. Billing and paying was done on line and made it easy. I highly recommend Vernon Hills Heating."

Wood Stove Inspection questions, answered by experts

Annual cleaning is generally recommended, mainly if the fireplace is used frequently, ensuring functionality and safe operation.

You don’t need electricity for a wood-burning stove unless it has a blower fan. Some wood-burning stoves include blower fans to help with heat distribution, but blower fans have a motor and use electricity to power the fan. You can still operate a wood stove without using the blower fan, so it’s a good source of heat if you have a power outage or are looking to lower your electric bill during winter.

Regular cleaning prevents the buildup of creosote and soot, ensuring good airflow and reducing the risks of chimney fires that could compromise safety.

Chimney crowns are located above the final brick layer at the top of a chimney. It’s important to get regular chimney maintenance and inspection, because it is near impossible to spot chimney crown damage without getting on your roof.

Your chimney comes with dampers, which are similar to air vents. Dampers are metal plates that allow hot air and smoke to flow from the fireplace up your chimney and out of your home. When you close the damper, it prevents cool air from getting into your home. This is why you’ll want to check to make sure your damper is open before starting your fireplace and you want to ensure it’s closed after the fire goes out. You can open and close them via an external knob, pull chain, or lever.
