September 27- October 3, 2010 is National Chimney Safety Week. Chimney safety is vital to fire prevention and your family’s safety.
Safety Tips:
- Have your chimney thoroughly inspected and cleaned to make sure it is sound, free of debris, and has the correct clearances.
- Make sure your chimney has the correct amount of quality lining that is necessary. Have this checked by hiring a chimney sweep.
- Install a thermometer to monitor the temperature within your chimney. Keeping smaller fires is recommended.
- Visit the Chimney Safety Institute of America at their website for more information and helpful tips.
