I finally had to warn my neighbors about their chimney maintenance

After cleaning two chimneys on my street, both had too much creosote from no sweeps for years. One was partly blocked, which might make smoke come inside. A good reminder to push for yearly checks.

Friend of mine almost got taken out by that last winter. Fire department had to bust their door down.

Guess that's one HELL of a way to test your carbon monoxide detector.
