Ed and Rich have been F.I.R.E. Certified for 20+ years and they convinced me to certify three years ago. As I walked out of the exam I told Ed we are coming back again when it’s time to renew! That’s where we’ve been all week, thanks for your patience concerning answered texts and emails! Class is from 8-5 or 6 and it’s non stop review of codes, standards and the F.I.R.E manual, homework reading, and daily quizzes. Not only do you need to know what’s in these books, you need to know WHY they are so important and how they protect our customers each burning season. Here are some photos from the fire/heat exposure over time demonstration. This is why we scan your chimneys when we sweep them and why we take measurements and stand pondering for a bit before answering your question “How’s it look?”
