Woodfires safety tips

Plumbing & Heating

Here are three top safety tips for using woodfires:

Regular Chimney Maintenance:
Ensure your chimney is cleaned and inspected at least once a year by a professional. This helps prevent creosote buildup, which can cause chimney fires

Use the Right Wood:
Burn only dry wood. Avoid burning green or wet wood, as it produces more creosote and smoke

Install Safety Alarms:
Install smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in your home. Make sure these detectors are tested regularly and have fresh batteries
