While the callouts were down on past winters they still cropped up and it came down to a combination of a casual approach to cleaning and using green wood, he said.
And while chimney fires were relatively quickly dealt with, they created a potential risk to ceiling spaces, "which is why people have to ring us and let us deal with it, rather than try and put it out themselves".
Older systems and particularly units which had not been correctly installed had the potential to quickly heat up ceiling spaces and timbers if there was a fire up the chimney flue. Nichol said people using fires needed to get into the habit of having them cleaned annually.
