(London.CityRegions.com, July 20, 2013 ) London,UK -- Timaru has been suffering a particularly smoky winter, with 18 recorded nights that have exceeded the recommended health standard. This could be caused by homeowners burning wet firewood in their chimneys instead of buying dry wood.
“Al” of Al’s Chimney Sweeps said he was so busy that he was still two to three weeks behind schedule cleaning out client’s chimney’s despite making up to a dozen appointments a day. He says every year people try to go with the cheapest firewood and it isn’t dry enough. He has gone into some homes where the firewood is at an 80 percent moisture level, which won’t burn well at all, and will result in not keeping a home warm and will cause smoke to billow out of a chimney.
Top Cut firewood owner and operator Don George says people wait to buy firewood at the last minute, or they don’t purchase the right kind of stuff they need for their fireplaces. He says all the wood he sells is dry, but it’s more expensive at this time of the year, so people will look to the cheapest places. People buying cheap not only dirties up their own chimneys, but they ruin the air for everyone else.
Environment Canterbury have followed up on as many as 40 complaints in Timaru about smoky chimneys, but it has not taken action against any of them. So far, it has just advised homeowners to be more responsible of their actions.
