Annual Sweeping Program

WE WANT TO SAVE YOU MONEY $$$

If your system requires an annual sweeping, 

(and it does if you burn wood three times a week through the burning season)

join the Annual Sweeping Program and we will
 
freeze the price 
 of sweeping your system
 
for three years!

The Annual Sweeping Program reduces your cost and helps even out our seasonal workload.  Because people tend to leave things to the last minute, the months of September through December are so busy, we are not always able to schedule your appointment for when it is most convenient for you.

Here's how the Annual Sweeping Program works.

**** the sweeping must be done between April 1st and August 30th 
to qualify for the three year price freeze. ****  

 

from the Ontario Fire Code ...
