Chimney Sweeping, Sussex CountyYour Local Chimney Sweeps in Sussex County, NJ
In Sussex County, nearly half of homes burn fuel oil and about 4% heat with wood, so chimneys here work hard all winter. Oil boilers coat the flue with soot and scale. Wood stoves run at low heat for days and lay down creosote. A long heating season gives both plenty of time to build up. Our crew sweeps each flue, checks the cap and crown for snow damage and tells you whether one cleaning a year is enough for the way you burn.

Chimney Sweeping for Sussex County Homes
Fuel oil heats about 48% of occupied homes in Vernon and wood about 3.7%, by Census estimates. A wood stove that runs all winter at low heat can coat a flue quickly, so heavy wood users may need more than one cleaning a season.
In Sparta, fuel oil heats about 44% of occupied homes and propane or tank gas about 17%. Oil flues collect soot and scale over a long Sussex winter, and NFPA 211 calls for cleaning whenever those deposits build up.
We sweep chimneys in Vernon, Sparta, Hopatcong, Byram, Newton and Franklin.
