Home Owner's Frequently Asked Questions
We need the inside or outside dimensions of the chimney and approximate height. Both are simple to measure. Most chimneys have a clean out door at or near the bottom of the chimney. Open the door and measure side to side, then front to back. For height, you do not have to go on the roof, just figure it floor by floor and add them up (remember to add a foot for the joists between floors).

10 Reasons Why You Should Be Using the Chimney Scrubber
1. SAFETY
Creosote forms very easily in your chimney, especially in the fall and spring when fires are slower burning. State Fire Marshalls recommend cleaning every two weeks.
2. BETTER OPERATION
A clean chimney makes for better drafting. Better drafting means that you will be able to operate your stove at its maximum performance levels.
3. LESS DOWNDRAFTS
A clean chimney will pull smoke with greater velocity reducing the chance of downdrafts.
4. CHIMNEY FIRES ARE EXPENSIVE
Even if the fire department puts the fire out you may have an expensive cleanup or worse, chimney replacement.
5. INDOOR AIR QUALITY
A cleaner chimney means less particulates will enter into your living space.

6. EXTERIOR CHIMNEYS
Exterior chimneys produce creosote faster because three sides of the chimney is constantly cold.
7. GREEN WOOD
Burning green wood accumulates creosote faster than dry wood. Make sure your wood is dried for one year or more and has less than a 20% moisture content before burning.
8. COLD WEATHER
Creosote forms most rapidly when the burn rate is slower. Chimney fires occur most often on the coldest days when the burn rate is faster thus igniting existing creosote more easily.
9. YOUR FIRE DEPARTMENT
Your fire department is most likely your neighbor, too. Be mindful of your home's safety so that you won't have to call them out to your home in the cold onto a slippery roof.
10. YOUR NEIGHBORS
Neighbors who burn wood will wish they had your foresight when they struggle, as most everyone does, to clean their chimney.
