In all honesty, there isn't one single time of year that's best for getting your chimney cleaned and inspected, but some seasons are better than others. Regardless of what time of the year it is, however, you should always have your chimney inspected as soon as possible if:
- Your chimney hasn't been inspected in more than a year. Annual inspections are recommended, as it's best to have your chimney inspected after every winter to insure it's still in good shape.
- You just moved into a new house. When you just moved into a new place, there's no way to tell for sure whether or not the previous home owners took well care of their fireplace and chimney.
- You notice any potential problems. If you notice smoke leaking into your house when you use your fireplace, or if your chimney seems to have cracks, it's time to have it checked out.
