Chimney on fire<br />
The use of damp fuel or fuel of the wrong type may cause soot deposits in the chimney which<br />
can ignite. In case of a chimney fire, close the primary and secondary air slides and the door<br />
to the fire chamber. Call the fire service, heating engineer, chimney sweep. Before re-lighting<br />
the fire, have the chimney inspected by a qualified engineer. Do not attempt to extinguish<br />
the fire with water. This may cause an explosion of steam in the chimney, causing serious<br />
damage to the building.<br />
