Professional Odivelas chimney sweep service

Chimney Sweeping Service in Odivelas

Clogged chimneys are an increasing cause of preventable house fires. The buildup of soot in chimneys is a highly flammable by-product, which, combined with Portugal's dry climate, becomes the perfect ignition point for a fire.

Another issue is that wood remains the most widely used material in home construction. Despite advancements in fire-retardant treatments, wood is still wood, and as such, it burns easily. Therefore, preventing house fires should be a priority for any household.

Don’t delay the preventable and make sure to add this essential service to your yearly to-do list.

How often should you have your chimney swept?

The national recommendation states that every chimney, flue, and flue pipe should be inspected to identify any dangerous conditions at intervals not greater than 12 months, at the time of adding any appliance, and after any chimney fire. It also notes that chimneys, flues, and flue pipes should be cleaned as often as necessary to keep them free from dangerous accumulations of combustible deposits.

Even if a homeowner doesn’t use the chimney much, animals may build nests in the flue, or there may be other types of deterioration that could make the chimney unsafe to use.

The official recommendations are that open masonry fireplaces should be swept when there is 3 mm of sooty buildup, and sooner if there is any glaze present in the system. This is considered enough fuel buildup to cause a chimney fire capable of damaging the chimney or spreading to the home. Factory-built fireplaces should be swept when any appreciable buildup occurs. The logic is that the deposit is quite acidic and can shorten the life of the fireplace.
