What Should Make You Pick Up the Phone?
For your HVAC system, pay attention to:
• Dust that returns unusually quickly
• Visible buildup around registers
• Excessive dust around the home
• Debris around vents
• Uneven airflow
• Ductwork affected by construction or renovation
For your fireplace and chimney, watch for:
• Heavy soot inside the firebox
• Visible creosote buildup
• Persistent smoky odors
• Debris inside the fireplace
• Damper problems
• Visible chimney deterioration
• A long period without professional chimney cleaning
These signs don’t tell you the exact cause. They tell you it’s time to stop guessing.
