Incorrect Chimney Height:
Even when there is no fire, your chimney still draws in a certain amount of air through what is known as ambient updraft. This is due to the fact that the air at the top of the flue is a lower density than the air in the home. While building codes require chimneys to meet minimum height requirements, the terrain and atmospheric conditions surrounding your home may require a taller chimney in order to create ambient updraft. Our chimney experts can evaluate your chimney and the surrounding conditions to determine if your chimney is the correct height. Hire a professional in chimney repair in NYC to fix any issues you may have with your chimney.
