Around here

What this part of the county asks of a chimney

Houses differ from town to town. A few things are shared.

  1. Freeze and thaw

    Winters here swing across freezing again and again. Water that soaks into brick and mortar expands as it freezes, and mortar joints and flue tiles crack.

  2. A long heating season

    Fires can start in autumn and go on into spring, and the soot adds up over those months. A sweep before the first fire is the usual rhythm.

  3. Stoves and inserts

    Besides open fireplaces, many houses heat with a wood or pellet stove or an insert, and each has a flue that needs its own sweeping.

  4. Chimneys that sit idle

    A fireplace that is hardly lit still has a flue, and animals can nest in it. That is why the yearly inspection is not only for heavy burners.
