Why It's Important to Service Your Fireplace

Regular servicing of your fireplace is essential to maintain its performance and safety. Over time, soot and creosote can accumulate, potentially leading to dangerous chimney fires. Annual inspections and cleanings help prevent these risks, ensure efficient operation, and extend the lifespan of your fireplace. At Country Stove & Fireplace, our professional team is dedicated to ensuring that your fireplace functions safely and efficiently, providing peace of mind along with warmth and comfort.

How Often Should I Get My Fireplace Professionally Cleaned?

It is recommended to have your fireplace and chimney inspected at least once a year, ideally before the start of the heating season. If you use your fireplace frequently, additional cleanings might be necessary to handle the extra buildup of residues. Regular professional cleaning ensures that your fireplace operates efficiently and safely, providing optimal heat distribution and reducing the risk of chimney fires.

What Fireplaces Require The Most Maintenance

Wood-burning fireplaces typically require more frequent maintenance due to the buildup of creosote and soot. These fireplaces should be cleaned regularly to prevent chimney fires and ensure efficient airflow. Gas fireplaces, while generally requiring less maintenance, still need annual inspections to check for leaks and ensure the venting systems are functioning properly.
