Connecticut – 06-08-2021: The US sees more than 25,000 chimney fires per year. These fires result in over $125 million in property losses each year while costing thousands of people their lives.

There are more than 17.5 million fireplaces in the US, and the lack of chimney safety awareness continues to pose a risk to homeowners. The most common reason behind chimney fires is creosote buildup in the chimney flue due to wood burning.

Homeowners can prevent chimney fire accidents by getting the chimney inspected and having it lined to prevent creosote buildup. Most homeowners only get the chimney inspected when the house is on sale. However, it’s widely recommended to get chimneys inspected every year, particularly when the chimney hasn't been in use for an extended period.

To help prevent chimney fires, CT Chimney Repair is providing the people of Connecticut and Florida with high-quality chimney inspection services. With over 30 years of experience in the field, the company’s contractors provide several chimney-related services, including inspection, lining, repairing, and cleaning. The company offers up to three levels of inspections for chimneys made from different materials.

Speaking about their efforts to make chimneys safe for customers, a representative of the company said, “A fireplace is an aesthetic home feature, especially a classic wood-burning fireplace, which requires a chimney in order to let out smoke from the burning wood. The residue left by that wood is called creosote, and it’s a significant fire hazard if not dealt with properly. This is why we inspect, clean, and line chimneys to make they are safe for everyone. We’ve been in this industry for decades, so we know exactly how to work with different styles of chimneys.”

In addition to the fire hazard, uninspected chimneys also present the risk of smoke inhalation and carbon monoxide poisoning. CT Chimney Repair offers services at discounted rates to encourage people to ensure safe chimney use.
