A chimney sweep
is a person who clears chimneys from ash and soot. Venting systems for coal,
heating oil, natural gas, wood and pellet burning appliances still need to be
maintained these days, and therefore chimney
sweeps still operates in the United States. There are great dangers of flue deposits
and carbon monoxide and gases from combustion. Most chimney sweeps are done
from the bottom of the chimney, rather than the top, to prevent the scattering
of dust and debris. Modern tools such as vacuum cleaners, cameras as well as
special cleaning tools are used by chimney sweeps. In the US, the trade
organizations that help to regulate the industry and issues certifications for
chimney sweeps are Certified
Chimney Professionals, Chimney
Safety Institute of America and The National Chimney Sweep Guild.
