Before you light your fireplace in the Talladega, AL area, the National Fireplace Protection Association suggests you have your fireplace and chimney checked out annually. Indoor heating equipment is the second leading cause of residential fires. A complete chimney service will remove dangerous build up of creosote. We also include a thorough inspection to make sure your fireplace is safe.
Make sure your damper works properly and you have no cracks in your chimney. This is a fire hazard and should be fixed before using it. And you should have a chimney cap installed to keep flammables in and rain & critters out.
