General conditions and safety
Do you accept the risk of fire or do you call the chimney sweeper regularly?
In Serbia, people do not pay much attention to the maintenance of chimneys and fireboxes. They only call us when something is wrong. We often receive calls from people who have tried to solve the problem of their chimney by themselves and thus made the problem even bigger and increased the risk of fire as well. Although you might think that the reason for this negligence is different for everyone, there are three main reasons:
- misunderstanding of needs
- risk neglect and
- financial reason
Consult a professional!
In order for your firebox and chimney to function properly, it is necessary to meet certain conditions. You should always consult a professional if you have any dilemma regarding their use or maintenance. Find out more…
Do not allow yourself to become part of the statistics of Serbian firefighters! Use chimney sweep services regularly!
A clean chimney does not burn! Failure to maintain the chimney or using unsuitable fuel leads to the deposition of tar on the chimney walls, which together with the fire from the firebox poses a high risk of fire. However, fire is not the only danger when a fire breaks out. A large percentage of deaths occurred in a fire were caused by carbon monoxide poisoning.
The cost of chimney regular maintenance is minimal compared to the material damage which may occur due to a fire!
Material damage caused by a fire in your chimney is not only reflected in the destruction of your real estate. The fire can also affect the neighboring household, and there are also the costs of the fire services intervention. In some European countries, firefighters service to extinguish fires in the chimney are charged, if it is established after the intervention that the chimney was not regularly maintained. In these cases, the insurance companies do not compensate for the damage either.
Don’t be one of those who procrastinate to call chimney sweepers.
