Nothing soothes the soul and warms the heart more in the wintertime than the flickering ambiance of a fire. For many, it’s not just a cozy way to spend an afternoon — it’s an important source of heat.

Whether your fire sets the scene or keeps your family warm, taking a few steps to ensure your fireplace and chimney are up to the task is critical. Seasonal maintenance ensures your fire burns more efficiently — saving you money — while also ensuring it burns more safely — potentially saving your life.
