It’s Time To Clean Out Your Chimney

The Dryden Fire Service wants to remind the public that dirty chimneys can cause fires.
Information Officer Reagan Breeze Breeze says it’s important to check walls for heat, install a rain cap and watch for smoke coming into the room, which is a common indicator that the chimney is blocked.
He adds it’s a good idea to inspect and clean your chimney on a regular basis.
If in doubt, contact your local fire department or a Wood Energy Technical Training (WETT) certified chimney sweep.
