Chimney Safety for Roswell Homes

Roswell's Historic District and surrounding older neighborhoods have no shortage of homes with traditional wood-burning fireplaces, many original to the property. Creosote, a byproduct of burning wood, builds up inside the flue over time and is both a fire hazard and, if enough accumulates, a blockage risk that can push smoke and carbon monoxide back into the home instead of up the chimney.

The National Fire Protection Association recommends annual chimney inspection and cleaning for any fireplace in regular use. Pure Air Atlanta inspects and cleans flues for homes throughout Roswell, from Historic District cottages to newer builds with gas inserts.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should a chimney be cleaned?

Annually if used regularly through the winter, or at minimum once every one to two years for occasional use.

Do gas fireplaces need chimney cleaning too?

Yes, though less frequently than wood-burning units. A periodic inspection still checks for blockages and proper venting.

What if I just moved into an older Roswell home?

We recommend a full inspection before your first use, especially in Historic District homes where the chimney's maintenance history may be unknown.

How long does a chimney cleaning take?

Most Roswell homes take about 45 minutes to an hour for a standard sweep and inspection.
