Arrange a chimney and fuel-vent inspection

Arrange an annual qualified inspection of applicable chimneys, fireplaces and fuel vents.

Why it matters

Fuel-burning equipment needs safe venting.

Steps

  1. Arrange an annual qualified inspection of applicable chimneys, fireplaces and fuel vents.
  2. Ask which cleaning or repairs the equipment requires; do not dismantle fuel or vent connections yourself.
  3. Keep inspection records and follow the manufacturer’s service instructions.

How often should I arrange a chimney and fuel-vent inspection?

Yearly is the planning default. Follow your equipment instructions and act sooner on a fault.
