Thousands of homes each year experience chimney fires caused by a build up of creosote.
Over years of regular use, chimneys accumulate creosote from the incomplete combustion of wood. This substance is highly flammable, and an errant spark can catch this byproduct ablaze.
A chimney fire is very hazardous as the fire can easily spread into the home. It is important to have regular cleanings conducted to ensure that the fireplace is safe to use the entire season.
