Woodburner Chimney Sweep In Cornwall
Woodburner chimney sweeping and servicing
To maintain optimal performance and ensure safety, it is recommended that chimneys and flues be swept at least once a year, regardless of the fuel type used. Regular sweeping helps to remove soot, debris, and potential blockages, all of which can pose serious fire or carbon monoxide risks if left unchecked.
If the appliance is used frequently, or if you notice a decline in performance (such as poor draft or smoke leakage), more frequent inspections and sweeping may be necessary.
Routine chimney maintenance not only improves the efficiency of your heating system but also supports a healthier indoor environment by reducing the risk of harmful emissions and ensuring safe operation.

Why you need to sweep a wood burner chimney
Regular sweeping and servicing of chimneys connected to wood-burning or smokeless fuel appliances is essential for several key reasons — primarily for safety, efficiency, and insurance compliance.
Over time, deposits such as soot, creosote, and other residues can build up within the flue. If not removed, these materials pose a significant fire risk, particularly with wood-burning systems. Chimney sweeping also ensures any blockages, such as bird nests or accumulated debris, are cleared to allow for the safe and efficient expulsion of smoke and gases.
For homeowners and customers alike, it’s worth noting that many home insurance policies require proof of regular chimney maintenance. Failure to keep the chimney clean could result in claims being denied in the event of a chimney or house fire.
In addition to safety, routine sweeping helps your appliance perform at its best — improving fuel efficiency, lowering running costs, and ensuring your home stays warm and comfortable throughout the heating season.
To keep your wood or smokeless fuel appliance running safely and efficiently, we recommend booking a chimney sweep at least once a year — or more often with frequent use.
