What We Do During a Sweep

We protect your home with drop cloths and HEPA filtration, brush the flue with the correct tools for your liner type, and clear soot from the smoke chamber, throat area, and damper. We check visible components for damage and provide simple recommendations, including maintenance intervals based on your usage.

Why Sweeping Matters

Creosote is flammable and can ignite at high temperatures. Routine sweeping removes deposits and helps maintain proper airflow, reducing smoke rollout, odors, and draft problems. It’s especially important before the heating season or after periods of heavy use.

How Often?

Most wood-burning systems in Branford, CT benefit from an annual sweep. If you burn green wood, use your system frequently, or see heavy buildup, schedule more often. Gas systems still need periodic inspection to confirm the vent path is clear.
