Kent Fire & Rescue Service says: “The chimney is essentially a household exhaust pipe — funnelling away soot, smoke, gases, hot ashes and sparks — sweeping should be an essential part of home maintenance. This will help protect against blockages, smoke leaks, inadequate ventilation, insufficient draw, down-draught and tar build-up.”
