• Ensure your chimney is swept regularly

• Be careful when using open fires to keep warm. Make sure you always use a fire guard
to protect against flying sparks from hot embers
• Ensure the fire is extinguished before going to bed or leaving the house
• Chimneys should be swept according to the type of fuel used
(always consult your NACS Chimney Sweep for advice)
• Never interrupt the air supply by blocking air vents or air bricks
