Chimney sweep

Proper prevention protects against unpleasant surprises!

While the cleaning of fireplaces, stoves, tiled stoves and stovepipes used to be the main focus, the activities of chimney sweeps and chimney sweeps today cover a much broader spectrum.

In residential buildings, chimney sweeps are primarily responsible for the periodic cleaning and maintenance of combustion and smoke extraction systems (central heating, fireplaces, Swedish stoves, etc.). Industry and commerce also require the services of chimney sweeps. And school buildings, hospitals, care homes, multi-purpose halls, etc. have a large demand for heat and hot water, which is covered by large heating systems, e.g. modern wood chip heating systems.

Finally, chimney sweeps offer technical advice on firing systems for new buildings and, in their role as an inspection body in certain cantons, ensure that fire and fire safety regulations are complied with. This means that chimney sweeps no longer simply have the traditional role of "fire prevention", but are responsible for the safe, environmentally friendly and energy-efficient operation of combustion systems.
