Who We Are
Report
I am Terri Pocock and my husband is Rick Pocock. We are the very proud owners of Swede Chimney Sweep & Dryer Vent Cleaning. We didn't start out as chimney sweeps. In fact, even as young adults, we never imagined that we would be in this industry and we never imagined that we would love our jobs as much as we do!
Chimney Inspection
Report
In 2000, the National Fire Protection Agency, also known as the NFPA, revolutionized the way the chimney industry performed chimney inspections. In the NFPA 211 Standard, they developed specific guidelines for inspecting chimneys by establishing a three-tier inspection system-Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3.
Top Sealing Damper
Report
It is not uncommon for original dampers to become non-operational with age. The purpose of a damper is to close off the flue pipe and to reduce heat loss from the home during the winter and air conditioning during the summer. Once the original damper is seized, it is not always possible to get it operational again.
Chimney Caps and Wind Caps
Report
These terms can be used interchangeably. Because of strict animal protection regulations, removing certain kinds of birds is illegal and subject to heavy fines if we were to remove the birds because we don't have a special animal removal permit required by law. In this case, we can refer you to a wildlife rescue service.
Fireplace Heat Shields / Firebacks
Report
Heat shields date back to the 15th century in Europe for wood-burning open fireplaces, when they were called fire backs. Most were constructed from an iron casting and were decorated with various designs. Beautiful ornate fire backs from Europe can still be found today. During the colonial times in the United States, cast iron fire backs were quite common.
