What Preventive Measures Should Be Taken to Ensure Safe Operation of a Fireplace?
There are three key things you can do to keep your fireplace in good shape and prevent problems down the road. First, get your fireplace inspected every year by a certified chimney sweep. Second, make sure you’re using the right kind of firewood. Softwoods like pine and cedar shouldn’t be used, as they can create a lot of soot and creosote build-up. Third, have your flue checked to make sure it’s in good condition and not blocked by anything.
