WEBSITE INFORMATION & DISCLAIMER

The information provided on this website by ProVent Chimney Inc. is intended for general educational and informational purposes. It is designed to help property owners better understand chimney systems, common conditions and the services that may be available.

Website information is not a substitute for an on-site inspection, professional evaluation or job-specific recommendation. Many chimney and venting conditions are concealed from view, and similar warning signs may have different causes.

Photos, diagrams and illustrations are provided as general examples. They may simplify a system to make a condition or component easier to understand and may not represent the exact construction, dimensions or requirements of a particular property.

Every chimney, fireplace, appliance and venting system must be evaluated individually.

Building codes, product requirements and accepted installation methods may change over time and may vary by location and application. Information on this website should not be interpreted as a complete code reference, engineering opinion or approval for a specific installation.

Work may be subject to the currently applicable New York State Uniform Code, manufacturer installation instructions, product listings and the permit or inspection requirements of the local building department. The authority having jurisdiction determines the requirements that apply to a particular property or project.

Descriptions of services do not guarantee that a particular repair, product or installation method will be appropriate or available for every property. Final recommendations depend on the system, its condition, accessibility, compatibility and the findings of an on-site evaluation.

Nothing on this website creates a service agreement, warranty, estimate or contractual obligation. Any approved written estimate, service agreement or contract provided for a specific project will control the scope, materials, pricing, warranties and terms of that work.

ProVent Chimney Inc. makes reasonable efforts to provide useful and accurate information. However, we cannot guarantee that every page will always be complete, current or applicable to every chimney, appliance, property or municipality.

Website content may be corrected, updated, expanded or removed as products, codes, services and industry practices change.

Do not rely on this website to diagnose or respond to an emergency.

If you notice fire, heavy smoke, a carbon-monoxide alarm, a suspected gas leak or another immediate danger, leave the affected area and contact 911, the fire department or the appropriate utility provider. Stop using the fireplace, chimney or connected appliance until the system has been properly evaluated.

Unless otherwise credited, jobsite photographs displayed on this website are original ProVent Chimney Inc. photography and show work performed, conditions documented or projects personally photographed by ProVent.

Original photographs, written content, diagrams, graphics and branded materials may not be copied, reproduced, modified, republished or used for commercial purposes without prior written permission.
