Everyone enjoys the soft crackle of a hardwood fire and warmth that blossoms from a fireplace on a cold December day. But few homeowners realize the vital need to clean their chimneys. And every chimney requires regular maintenance–a bird nest that blocks a gas-fired furnace flue can be every bit as deadly as the creosote deposits produced by a wood burning stove or fireplace.

How A Chimney Fire Starts: Every time you use your fireplace or stove, the burning wood deposits a thin layer of flammable creosote inside the chimney flue. If left unattended, these creosote deposits can accumulate to dangerous levels and erupt without warning into a dangerous chimney fire. The consequences can range from a whopping chimney repair bill to a deadly house fire.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission reported that 23,600 residential fires in 1996 were were related to solid fuel appliances and equipment.

Don't Relax Because You Don't Burn Wood: Creosote build-up causes most chimney fires, but every chimney is potentially dangerous. Bird and animal nests or even fallen leaves can block a chimney and let deadly emissions from the furnace seep into your home. In 1996, over 100 people died in their homes from carbon monoxide poisoning. Another 5,500 house fires resulted from chimneys and chimney connectors serving heating systems burning liquid and other fuels. Don't make the mistake of thinking that an oil or gas furnace can't cause a fire.
