In accordance with fire code requirements, we recommend wood burning chimney flues with deposits of 3 mm or greater be swept of combustible creosote deposits and all chimneys, flues and flue pipes be inspected at intervals not greater than 12 months.

• Stage 3 glazed creosote removal - glazed creosote is a tarry substance that fuses to surfaces and can not be removed during a standard power sweep.
