Signs Your Salem Chimney May Need Sweeping
Soot or creosote flakes collect in the firebox
Dark flakes or loose deposits can indicate buildup above the fireplace. A sweep removes chimney deposits rather than leaving them to accumulate through further use.
Smoke spills into the room
Smoke that enters the living space instead of rising through the chimney is a reason to stop using the fireplace and have the chimney checked. Sweeping addresses buildup; an inspection can help identify a separate problem.
The chimney smells smoky when the fireplace is cold
A persistent smoky odor can point to deposits inside the chimney. Tell us when you notice it and how often you use the fireplace so we can assess whether sweeping is the right service.
