Chimney Cleaning
Regular chimney cleaning is essential for preventing dangerous chimney fires and ensuring your fireplace operates safely and efficiently. Our certified technicians use professional-grade equipment to thoroughly remove creosote buildup, soot, and debris from your chimney flue and firebox.
Creosote, a tar-like substance that accumulates from burning wood, is highly flammable and the leading cause of chimney fires. In the Greater Boston area, where many homeowners use their fireplaces throughout the cold season, it's critical to stay on top of this essential maintenance. We recommend annual chimney cleaning for active fireplaces to protect your home and family.
Our cleaning service includes a complete inspection of your chimney system, removal of all combustible deposits, and a detailed report of our findings. We also check for obstructions like bird nests or leaves that could affect draft and performance. Trust Air Care Pro Chimney for thorough, reliable chimney cleaning in the Greater Boston area.

Chimney Inspection
A professional chimney inspection is your first line of defense against costly repairs and dangerous safety hazards. Our comprehensive inspections use advanced camera technology to examine every inch of your chimney, from the crown to the firebox, identifying cracks, deterioration, and potential issues before they become emergencies.
We perform Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 inspections based on your needs. A Level 1 inspection is recommended annually for regularly used chimneys. Level 2 inspections are required when selling a home, after severe weather, or when making changes to your heating system. Level 3 inspections involve removing portions of the chimney to assess hidden damage.
During inspection, we check the chimney structure, flue liner condition, chimney crown integrity, flashing and waterproofing, and overall safety compliance. You'll receive a detailed report with photos and recommendations. Whether you're buying a home in Cambridge or maintaining your Boston property, our chimney inspections provide peace of mind and protect your investment.

Chimney Cap Installation
A chimney cap is one of the most cost-effective investments you can make to protect your chimney system. This simple device prevents rain, snow, animals, leaves, and debris from entering your chimney while allowing smoke and gases to escape freely. Without a cap, water can cause thousands of dollars in damage to your chimney interior and home.
We install premium stainless steel chimney caps that resist rust and corrosion, even in harsh weather conditions. Our caps feature fine mesh screening to keep out birds, squirrels, raccoons, and bats while preventing ember escape that could ignite your roof. We offer single-flue caps, multi-flue caps, and custom-fabricated caps for unique chimney configurations.
In addition to weather and animal protection, chimney caps improve draft, reduce downdrafts that can push smoke into your home, and extend the life of your chimney. If your existing cap is damaged, missing, or rusted, we provide fast replacement service. Serving Newton, Brookline, Somerville, and all Greater Boston areas, we're your trusted source for quality chimney caps.

Fireplace Cleaning
Your fireplace is the heart of your home during cooler months, providing warmth, ambiance, and comfort. Professional fireplace cleaning ensures it operates safely and looks beautiful year after year. We clean both wood-burning and gas fireplaces, removing ash, soot, and buildup that can affect performance and air quality.
For wood-burning fireplaces, we thoroughly clean the firebox, remove ash and debris, clean the glass doors, and scrub the hearth. We also inspect the damper, refractory panels, and grate for damage. Gas fireplace cleaning includes removing dust and debris from burners, checking pilot lights and thermocouples, cleaning glass panels, and inspecting gas connections for safety.
Regular fireplace cleaning improves efficiency, reduces smoke and odors, prevents carbon monoxide buildup, and maintains the aesthetic appeal of your fireplace. Whether you have a traditional brick fireplace, a modern gas insert, or a decorative electric unit, our technicians have the expertise to keep it in top condition.

Dryer Vent Cleaning
Dryer vent cleaning is often overlooked, but it's a critical service that prevents house fires and improves your dryer's efficiency. According to the U.S. Fire Administration, nearly 3,000 dryer fires occur annually, causing millions in property damage. Lint buildup in dryer vents is the leading cause of these preventable fires.
Our dryer vent cleaning service removes accumulated lint, debris, and obstructions from your entire vent system, from the dryer connection to the exterior vent hood. We use specialized brushes and high-powered vacuums to ensure complete cleaning. You'll notice immediate improvements: faster drying times, lower energy bills, reduced wear on your dryer, and most importantly, enhanced safety for your family.
Warning signs you need dryer vent cleaning include clothes taking longer to dry, the dryer feeling hot to the touch, a burning smell during operation, and excess lint around the dryer area. We recommend annual dryer vent cleaning for most households, or more frequently for large families. Available as an add-on to our chimney services or as a standalone service throughout Cambridge, Somerville, and the entire Greater Boston area.
