First of all, it is important to check that there are no cracks in the walls of the stoves and chimneys. Through cracks are dangerous because they can allow carbon monoxide to enter the room. Also, keep an eye on the temperature of the stove - overheating can cause neighboring objects to catch fire and cause cracks.
The chimneys and walls in the attic where the chimneys are laid should be plastered and whitewashed. This not only improves the aesthetic appearance, but also provides an additional level of safety.
Experts urge you to follow fire safety rules at home and be attentive to potential dangers. Take care of yourself and your family!
