We are a full-service certified, licensed and insured chimney sweep. When it comes to your furnace venting system, you can count on us to make sure everything is cleaned properly and in working order. Our technicians are professional and courteous. Expect the best when you call Nayaug Chimney Services to inspect or provide your furnace flue cleaning of furnace venting systems.
At Nayaug, our chimney sweeps will recommend an annual inspection of any vented heating element whether it be a fireplace, gas, wood, coal or pellet stove, space heater or a furnace. If it is vented, it can be blocked. If it is blocked, it can spell disaster. If you have recently installed a new furnace or appliance to an existing venting system, please don't neglect inspecting the flues thoroughly. This is especially true if you are replacing one type of furnace for another, all flues must be cleaned and rated to be adequate for the new system prior to its installation and use.

Count on Nayaug Chimney Services to schedule annual visits for inspection and cleaning based on your use pattern and the seasonal needs of our climate in Connecticut. In Wethersfield, Manchester, Middletown or any other Central CT towns we are your furnace flue cleaning experts! |
| Both forced air and hot water systems should be inspected annually. Gas fueled systems get a rusty looking build-up called "gas scale" that is a result of gas residue and moisture combining. This build-up can reduce the efficiency of your furnace and pose a risk of carbon monoxide filtering back into the home. Dirt and debris also collects in your venting system adding to the reduced flow. Both oil or gas furnaces can become blocked or damaged and result in soot blowing back into your home or worse, carbon monoxide gases pushed back into living areas. Sometimes these heating appliance venting systems get ignored for years without any inspection. Homeowners may believe that there oil man, utility company or heating contractor will keep tabs on their flue. They then discover the hard way that nobody has been doing what needs to be done when soot blows back into the home damaging the interior, or worse someone gets sick or even death occurs from carbon monoxide poisoning. |

When the flue size is not matched to the newer furnace, condensation problems can occur which will facilitate corrosion and the buildup of soot. Moisture also may be entering through the top of the flue if there is not a weather cap, or through defects in the crown or brick. Moisture is the enemy of a clean flue and a safe furnace. Venting pipes need to match the appliance and its output to avoid problems like drafts, back blowing, moisture, corrosion and water damage. When you see a white residue on a masonry chimney it indicates mineral salts coming through the brick because of excess moisture. Moisture can also ruin nearby walls or ceilings causing structural damage to your home. Most venting problems can be repaired, relined or treated to reduce moisture - the key is to remember that a chimney sweep needs to check all your flues, including furnace flues annually. |
