Remove all of the material and have clean air.

Naturally, you would expect a heating contractor to recommend an annual furnace cleaning as we do. But we do so for a number of reasons. A cleaning means that your furnace will operate more efficiently, getting more heat for your fuel dollar. More importantly, however, the cleaning also includes a thorough safety check of the entire unit for cracked or defective/damaged parts. This annual maintenance check will assure you a carbon monoxide free winter. We recommend 60 degrees.

Yes. Oil soot is extremely flammable and an oil furnace produces carbon monoxide. A bi-product of oil combustion is sulfur dioxide that turns into sulfuric acid when it encounters moisture. This acid erodes terra-cotta clay flue liners, causing gaps in the flue where fumes can escape into living space, or causing the flue liners to collapse and block the vent completely. Remember that most oil burners are only 75-80% efficient when new. This performance degrades after approximately 6-months.

If you have an oil furnace, you may see smoke around the connection pipes and a build up of soot on top of the furnace and hot water heater. Extreme abnormal amount of heat in the area of the furnace and connecting pipes may be another sign that the oil furnace chimney needs to be cleaned. If you have a gas furnace, which burns clear and odorless, a CO (carbon monoxide) detector is a must. One of the only ways to keep your family safe is to install one in your home.
