Chimney Fires

With ever-increasing fuel costs, heating with wood has again become very popular. But this increased use of wood-heating equipment brings with it the need for constant, careful attention to assure the safe and efficient use of this heat source.

Fireplaces and wood stoves are designed to safely contain wood-fueled fires, while providing heat for a home. The chimneys that serve them have the job of expelling the by-products of combustion - the substances given off when wood burns.

Not just any fuel allowed in fireplaces or tiled stoves
