Frequently Asked Questions

Do You Provide Fireplace Maintenance?
At Tulsa Firewood Co we specialize in selling firewood at 50% off, and we do not specialize in fireplace cleaning services however we do without reservation provide your with the following tips free of charge:

Cleaning

You must keep your gas-burning or wood-burning units clean if you want them to be effective and safe. We recommend that you reach out to a professional fireplace cleaner or a local Tulsa chimney sweep annually to help you maintain your unit. These fireplace gurus will help you to insure that everything related to word-burning unit is working properly including:

1. Burner
2. Chimney Caps
3. Chimney Draw
4. The Entire Chimney
5. Combustion Components
6. Fans
7. Fan Units
8. Igniters
9. Pilots
10. Stove Doors
11. Ventilation Systems

If you are going to safely burn Tulsa Firewood you want to make sure that your chimney is inspected once per year so that you don’t find your chimney being filled with birds, possums, raccoons, rats, mice or majestic eagles. Chimney caps are designed to keep animals from nesting inside your chimney, however that often needs to be maintained. If you own a Tulsa fireplace that is not consistently and properly maintained you run the risk of accidentally poisoning your family as a result of the carbon monoxide buildup.

Ashes

Over time if you are a consistent Tulsa firewood burner you will discover that that ashes will begin to accumulate in your fireplace and this ash must be removed consistently or your fireplace will develop what is known as “ash buildup.” When you are removing the ashes and embers from your Tulsa fireplace you must always remember that many of the ashes can remain hot for extended periods of time so always work off of the assumption that the ashes are still hot. Although it can be tempting never use a vacuum cleaner to vacuum up your ashes because this could cause your vacuum to catch on fire. Also if you use a vacuum to vacuum up your ashes you run the risk of clogging your vacuum which could result in vacuum blown-back ashes being dispersed throughout your home at a rapid rate and that is not a good look.

If you choose to use a Tulas gas fireplace we could recommend that you diligently clean out your fireplace once per month using the latest and greatest bristle technology. If you do have a gas fireplace also make sure that you assume that the logs are still hot when you begin cleaning your gas fireplace.

Exterior Fireplace Cleaning

If you live in the Tulsa area and you have a brick fireplace we recommend that you hire a professional to clean the exterior of the Tulsa fireplace once per year. If you choose to have a brick fireplace you can actually clean your brick fireplace using a brick cleaner that can be purchased at big-box retailers like Lowes, or Home Depot.

However, if you have a slate fireplace you can also clean up your fireplace with lemon oil. Over time as an avid Tulsa firewood burner you will find the glass doors of your Tulsa-area fireplace will become darkened and blackened. If you want to remove the darkened and blackened stains you will want to first remove any residue that has built up as a result of continual burning using a sharp object (however never run with scissors).

After you have removed the residue, you can then begin using dish-washing detergent to clean the glassdoors found on your fireplace. First you will want to squirt dish-washing detergent into 1.5 gallons of water and from that point forward you will want to use a sponge and a spray bottle to wet the doors. There is also a unique and specialized designed glass cleaner that you can now buy in fireplace stores. If you own a fireplace that features brass decorative adornments we commend that you clean them using Worcestershire sauce and a brush of some kind (potentially even a toothbrush).
