Smoke rolling into the room is a draft problem — and draft problems have findable causes.
When a fireplace pushes smoke into the room instead of up the chimney, it’s a draft problem — and draft problems have specific, findable causes. The most common on Braintree fireplaces are heavy creosote narrowing the flue, a rough or gapped smoke chamber, a missing or undersized cap, or a flue that needs attention.
We diagnose the actual cause rather than guessing. Sometimes it’s as simple as an overdue sweep; sometimes it’s the smoke chamber or damper. Either way, you’ll get a clear answer and an honest fix.
Beyond the mess and smell, a fireplace that won’t draft properly means combustion byproducts are entering your living space. Identifying whether it’s creosote, the smoke chamber, the damper or the flue lets us fix the real cause instead of treating symptoms.
