DID YOU KNOW?

Zingela Property Management Ltd

That some insurance policies for homes with chimneys won't cover the property unless the landlord arranges for an annual sweep and check to make sure it is safe.

The tenant however is responsible for cleaning the ashes from the hearth. These are 3 simple steps that can prevent unnecessary inconvenience or tragedy.

1. DO NOT remove hot ashes from the fireplace immediately. Wait up to 2-3 days and let the ashes cool completely in the fireplace until there are no remaining hot embers before removing them.

2. NEVER put warm fireplace ashes in a combustible plastic trash container because it can easily ignite. If you have to remove the ashes from the fireplace before they are completely cool, put the ashes and remaining hot embers in a metal bucket. Move the bucket outside the house and garage and well away from anything that is combustible.

3. ONLY put fireplace ashes in your bin when they are completely cool and then put your trash container out on the street for trash pickup.
