How often should I clean my chimney?

It’s important to keep your chimney clean to ensure safety and efficiency. Here are some general guidelines:

Annual Cleaning

National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) recommends having your chimney professionally cleaned at least once a year, regardless of how often you use your fireplace.

Factors Influencing Frequency

  • Usage: If you use your fireplace frequently, you might need to clean it more often. For wood-burning fireplaces, it’s typically recommended to clean every 50-70 fires.
  • Fuel Type: Wood-burning fireplaces create more creosote, a flammable substance, compared to gas fireplaces. However, gas fireplaces should still be inspected and cleaned annually.
  • Wood Type: Burning green or wet wood produces more creosote. Hardwoods like oak and hickory burn cleaner than softwoods like pine.
  • Chimney Design: Some designs are more prone to creosote buildup.
  • Climate: Moist, cold climates can accelerate creosote buildup.

Special Cases

  • Pellet Stoves: These usually require cleaning every 2-3 months during the heating season.
  • Oil and Coal Furnaces: These should be inspected and cleaned annually to remove soot and creosote.

Regular inspections and cleanings help prevent chimney fires and ensure your fireplace operates efficiently
