A Service Company You Can Trust
Lindemann Chimney & Fireplace, Heating & Cooling serves the greater Evanston, IL, region and all of Cook County, IL, with the chimney and HVAC services you need to ensure safer and more efficient chimney, A/C, furnace and water heater operation.
Here are some of the ways we can help.
Evanston, IL Chimney Sweep
All masonry chimneys connected to active wood-burning fireplaces should be cleaned annually. This is the best way to prevent a destructive chimney fire started by ignited creosote.
You can’t keep flammable creosote from forming in your flue, but you can have it removed. Since 1969, Lindemann has been cleaning chimneys in Evanston, IL, with industry-grade tools, powerful solvents, and HEPA-filtered vacuums, removing even the most stubborn creosote buildup.
Chimney sweeping also removes leaves, twigs, small animal nests, and other debris that could narrow the flue and cause smoke and deadly carbon monoxide to back up into your home.
Chimney Inspections
We offer all levels of chimney inspection as described by the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA). A basic safety inspection, ideally performed during a chimney sweep job, covers all readily accessible areas of your chimney system. Our Evanston, IL, customers count on this inspection to warn them of potential damage and malfunctions so they can be resolved quickly.
Other chimney inspections include:
- Real estate chimney inspections
- Inspections for when you’re altering the system, such as with a new chimney liner or a new connected appliance
- Inspections after a suspected chimney fire or other occurrence caused damage
- Extensive inspections when major damage is known to exist
All inspections use digital cameras to see what our eyes can’t.
