Frequently Asked Questions

-
The National Fire Protection Association recommends an annual inspection at minimum. If you burn wood regularly, cleaning should happen every year. Even if you rarely use your fireplace, animals can nest in the flue and unseen deterioration can make it unsafe.
-
A Level 1 is a basic visual check of accessible components — ideal for annual maintenance. Level 2 adds a video camera scan inside the flue and is recommended after storms, when buying or selling a home, or after any change in fuel type. Level 3 is rare and involves removing components to investigate hidden structural concerns.
-
Very possibly. A damper that’s stuck open, warped, or corroded lets your conditioned air escape straight up the chimney. In a North Texas summer, that can increase your energy costs significantly — like running the AC with a window open on your roof. A quick inspection can tell you whether your damper is sealing properly.
-
Yes. Gas fireplaces still produce combustion byproducts that can corrode your flue liner over time. Annual inspections catch early signs of deterioration, blockages, or venting issues that affect both safety and efficiency.
