United Chimney Services is urging Clifton homeowners to prioritize fireplace safety this winter as colder weather increases the risk of chimney fires, smoke damage, and carbon monoxide exposure. Homeowners seeking fireplace safety inspection Clifton NJ are encouraged to schedule early evaluations before peak seasonal fireplace use begins.
According to company technicians, many winter fireplace hazards go unnoticed until they cause major problems. Hidden creosote buildup, cracked flue liners, blocked chimneys, and poor drafting can all lead to dangerous conditions inside the home.
“Fireplace safety is something many homeowners overlook until an issue becomes serious,” said company owner Daniel Ward. “A proper inspection and routine maintenance can prevent fire hazards and ensure the system is drafting safely all season long.”
