Chimney Clog Removal
A chimney that’s maintained properly is key to removing byproducts from combustion and gasses from becoming trapped inside. But regardless of a chimney’s design and features, clogs can (and do) occur. For example, creosote – a tar-like substance – forms in the chimney when smoke lingers inside. The creosote can quickly accumulate and cause a blockage in the chimney. If you don’t remove the clog, the creosote will continue to accumulate and the situation will worsen. Property owners that don’t clean a clogged chimney may have no choice but to make expensive repairs to restore it.

How a Chimney Can Become Clogged
A chimney can become home to numerous unwanted elements that cause obstruction and prevent the removal of byproducts. The most common culprits of chimney blockage include:
Creosote and soot build-up
Birds or other small animals living in the chimney
Damage within the chimney that causes obstruction
Water leaks
You can avoid most of these common culprits by cleaning and sweeping your chimney regularly. However, once there’s a large enough obstruction in the chimney, you’ll need a professional to fix the clogged chimney. If you don’t unclog the chimney timely, various dangers may come to light.
How Do You Know if Your Chimney Is Clogged?
There are a few ways you can identify a clogged chimney. The best way is to have your chimney inspected annually. The technician that examines your chimney will look for signs of blockage, such as a creosote build-up. In addition, the technician will look for damage that could cause leaks or blockages in the future. If your chimney is clogged, gasses may trigger your carbon monoxide detector. There may also be a blockage if you notice smoke from the fireplace lingering in the room instead of escaping through the chimney. Your chimney may also be clogged if you smell strange odors after turning on your fireplace.

The Risks of a Clogged Chimney
There are a few not-so-common risks that you should be aware of if you have a clogged chimney:
- A blocked flue can cause carbon dioxide to accumulate inside your home
- Obstruction in the chimney can cause a fire
- Toxic fumes can linger inside your property, resulting in health concerns
Many of these risks, such as carbon dioxide leakage, are not easy to spot. Therefore, a regular chimney cleaning, sweeping, and inspection is imperative to avoiding a clogged chimney furnace.
