What Can Go Wrong with Fireplaces?
Many homeowners in Texas may find that their fireplaces aren’t used frequently due to the relatively short and mild winters. As a result, these essential features can often be neglected, leading to various problems that may not be immediately apparent. However, just because a fireplace isn’t in regular use doesn’t mean it can’t develop issues over time.
Some of the issues Duct-X has encountered with fireplaces include:
- Cracked masonry: Over time, the materials in your fireplace can become cracked due to temperature fluctuations. These cracks can allow smoke and harmful gases to escape into your home, so addressing them promptly is important.
- Flue blockages: Chimney flues can be blocked by soot, debris, or animal nests. A blocked flue can prevent smoke from escaping, leading to hazardous conditions and poor airflow. Regular inspections can help catch blockages before they become serious.
- Deteriorating mortar: The mortar joints in your fireplace may deteriorate due to moisture and use, leading to structural issues as well as drafts. Repairing or repointing this mortar can restore your fireplace’s stability and functionality.
- Poor draft: If your fireplace has a poor draft, it can lead to smoke filling the room instead of exiting through the chimney. Design issues or blockages can cause this, and resolving this issue will make your fireplace more enjoyable and safe to use.
- Rusty damper: A rusted damper can prevent it from opening or closing properly, affecting airflow and leading to heating problems. Replacing or repairing the damper can enhance your fireplace’s performance.
At Duct-X, we believe in addressing these common issues with expertise and careful attention to detail. Our knowledgeable technicians have the skills to thoroughly assess and repair your fireplace so it remains safe and functional for the times you’ll want to gather around it.
