Chimney Safety Tips
Posted on Sep 16th, 2013
From Chief Jeff Riddle, Middletown Fire Protection District:
Have your chimney cleaned and inspected, before using this fall. If you have Vent-Free gas logs, I recommend having them serviced and cleaned. Vent-Free logs have several safety systems incorporated into there design and if not maintained could cause the system to shut down.
Whenever using a professional to either clean your chimney, gas logs or servicing any of your appliances, make sure they are insured and are in good standing with the Better Business Bureau. If you have any questions about fire safety in the home please feel free to contact us at 245-7555 from 7 am to 4 pm Monday – Friday
