Why local chimney safety cannot wait
- NFPA research consistently finds heating equipment among the leading causes of U.S. home fires, with chimneys and fireplaces a recurring factor when creosote or blocked flues go unaddressed.
- Under IRC Chapter 10, factory-built fireplaces and chimneys must be installed to listing and manufacturer instructions; improper clearances or missing components are common inspection findings.
- A Level 1 chimney inspection documents accessible portions of the chimney and connected appliance — the baseline most homeowners need each year.
