"Very well. I burn 3-5 cords of wood per year and it is essential that I have a clean flue to prevent chimney fires. Jamie was prompt, courteous and did a very professional job. Would definitely hire again next year."

"The American Chimney people were friendly, competent and efficient. However, just like earlier this year when I had an appliance person come out to check my refrigerator, I paid $89.10 as I did another $89.10 for the gas fireplace. neither professional was able to meet my needs. The appliance guy said yes the fridge compressor was the problem but I should stay with company I purchased it from to keep the warranty. The chimney guy did not work on gas fireplaces, said I should call the company manufacturer for check. He did check chimney and said fireplace flame appeared low. When I requested a gas fireplace professional I expected someone who was qualified in all aspects of gas fireplace check, repair and able to even add a remote if possible. I have requested an insulation check of my attic but now Iâ m going to cancel. They will probably come and check insulation and I will have to pay $89.10 for them to tell me I need to call an insulation company for additional insulation if required. So no I will no use home advisor again."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

There are six main choices of fireplace inserts: wood-burning, gas, propane, pellet, electric, and coal. Coal fireplace inserts aren’t as popular as they once were because burning coal emits a lot of carbon monoxide. Any fireplace insert will require proper supervision, and it’s a good idea to install a carbon monoxide detector in the room for added safety.

You should only use water to put out a fire in your fireplace in an emergency situation. Even then, it is better to use a fire extinguisher to put out a fire quickly. Make sure every room in your house that has a fireplace also has a fire extinguisher—and that everyone in your household knows how to use one.

Depending on the model of your fireplace, you can leave your pilot light on year-round. This does use a small amount of fuel, so you’ll save on your energy bill by turning off the pilot light seasonally. Keep in mind that some gas fireplace models don’t have a standing pilot light.

In most cases, you should not put a TV on a fireplace mantel. The minimum width required to put a TV safely on a shelf or mantel is 10 inches, but pre-made mantels are usually too shallow, averaging at only seven inches deep. If you do choose to place a TV above a mantel, it should be mounted to the wall. However, do so cautiously as heat radiating from the fireplace could potentially cause damage to electronics.

Common issues discovered during a chimney inspection or cleaning include creosote buildup, cracked liners, structural degeneration or masonry degradation, and obstructions such as blocked flues or animal nests. These issues are potential safety hazards that can lead to combustion problems or poor air quality if not addressed.
