Advanced Technology and Professional Equipment

At America’s Chimney Sweep, our goal is simple.
Use the right technology and the right tools to deliver safer, cleaner, and more accurate chimney services.
From inspections to cleaning and repairs, we rely on professional equipment that helps us find hidden issues, confirm performance, and protect your home.

Video Inspection Technology

Hidden damage is easy to miss without the right tools. That’s why we use advanced video scanning to see what’s happening inside your flue.
When needed, we document findings so you can make decisions with confidence.

What a video scan helps us identify

  • Cracks and gaps in the flue liner
  • Creosote buildup and blockages
  • Offsets, deterioration, or prior repair issues
  • Moisture intrusion and signs of leaks

Professional Chimney Cleaning Equipment

A proper cleaning is not “just brushing.” It’s controlled, thorough, and tailored to your chimney.
Our technicians use professional-grade tools designed to remove buildup while keeping your home protected.

Our cleaning approach includes

  • Professional-grade brushes matched to your flue type
  • High-powered vacuums to capture soot and fine debris
  • Protective setup to keep dust contained
  • Detailed attention to the smoke chamber and reachable areas

Testing and Safety Checks

Technology helps confirm performance, not just appearance. We use reliable testing methods to verify venting and identify conditions that can
impact safety or efficiency.

We may verify

  • Draft and airflow performance
  • Venting issues that can affect smoke flow
  • Signs of unsafe conditions that may require repair

If something looks off, we explain it clearly and recommend the next step.

Dryer Vent Tools That Improve Safety

Dryer vents need specialized equipment to remove lint safely and completely. Proper tools help reduce fire risk and improve drying efficiency.

Our dryer vent equipment supports

  • Full-length lint removal from dryer to exterior
  • Airflow testing after service
  • Identification of crushed, disconnected, or unsafe vent sections

Why This Matters for Your Home

Advanced tools are not a “nice to have.” They help us find problems earlier, reduce repeat issues, and deliver a cleaner, more controlled service.

Benefits of modern equipment

  • Finds issues earlier
  • Reduces repeat problems
  • Improves safety and performance
  • Supports clear, documented recommendations

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should dryer vents be cleaned?

We recommend professional dryer vent cleaning at least once per year. If you do multiple loads daily or notice longer drying times, you may need more frequent cleaning.

What are signs my dryer vent needs cleaning?

Warning signs include longer drying times, clothes that are hot to the touch, burning smell, excessive lint around the dryer, and the outside vent hood not opening properly.

Can a clogged dryer vent cause a fire?

Yes. Lint is highly flammable, and clogged dryer vents are a leading cause of house fires. Regular cleaning significantly reduces this risk.

How long does dryer vent cleaning take?

Most dryer vent cleaning services take 30-60 minutes, depending on the vent length and level of buildup.
