The primary reason for the sweeping of chimneys is
to remove flammable creosote to aid in the prevention
of chimney fires. These extremely fierce fires can
be very dangerous and possibly lead to house fires
and loss of life.
Secondary reasons for sweeping of flues are to ensure
a clear passage way which the toxic exhaust gasses
can escape through. Deaths through carbon monoxide
poisoning have been well documented in the press and
a major cause is a blocked flue way.
