Downdraft Repair Services
Restoring Safe, Efficient Fireplace Performance
If smoke is pouring into your home instead of rising up the chimney, you may be dealing with a downdraft issue—
What Is a Chimney Downdraft?
A downdraft occurs when outside air pushes smoke and gases back down into your fireplace instead of allowing them to vent safely.
This can be caused by:
🌬️ Strong winds or negative air pressure
🧱 Improper chimney height or design
🏠 Tight home construction or ventilation issues
🔥 Cold air trapped in the flue
❌ Blockages or damaged chimney components
Downdrafts aren’t just annoying—they’re a serious safety concern.
