A-1 Safety Chimney Service, Carol Stream

There's not much that's more relaxing than kicking back in front of a roaring fire—as long as that fire is under control. That's why the National Fire Protection Agency recommends chimneys and furnace flues be inspected every year and fireplaces be cleaned every 50 fires. By taking such safety precautions and resisting the urge to set the couch on fire "just to see what happens," homeowners can avoid dangerous situations. In addition to thoroughly inspecting chimneys for buildup and then sweeping them, A-1 Safety Chimney Service's crews rebuild chimneys, install custom gas-log sets, and inspect dryer vents.
