How Does Chimney Dampers Work
Imagine cozying up by your fireplace, enjoying the warmth on a chilly evening. But have you ever thought about what makes that possible?
A chimney damper is a part of your fireplace system that controls the airflow in and out of the chimney. It acts like a valve, allowing you to open or close the flue. When the damper is open, smoke and gases escape, ensuring efficient burning of your firewood. When closed, it keeps out drafts, prevents animals from entering, and reduces heat loss when the fireplace isn’t in use.
If you’re having trouble with your chimney damper, contact our chimney professionals in NJ. We’ll guide you through everything you need to know and provide a complete assessment of any repairs needed.
