The impending bout of extreme weather will come as a shock and forecasters have warned Britons should not to be lulled into a false sense of security by the recent mild conditions.January is currently showing signs of temperatures hitting “record-breaking” lows meaning parts of
the country could see the mercury plunge to -27C (-17F).
James Madden, forecaster for Exacta Weather said “significant snowfall” is likely in weeks with savage frosts and thick winter fogs threatening widespread misery.
He said: “Over the coming weeks and into November, it is likely to turn progressively colder, even very cold at times, in particular, in parts of the north as northern blocking becomes a somewhat more prominent feature.
How To Make Sure Your Fireplace from Stoves in Hastings is Safe
Inspect the chimney to make sure a chimney cap is contemporary and in good repair. The metal cap keeps animals, rain, and snow out of the chimney, while performing as a spark arrester that stops hot embers from landing on your roofing.If you have a multi-story home or a steep roof, play it safe and use a pair of binoculars to inspect the chimney cap from the ground.
While you’re at it, make sure:
- There’s no bird nest or debris buildup on the cap.
- There are no tree limbs above or near the chimney.
- The mortar and bricks on the chimney aren’t crumbling or missing.
- The chimney rises at least 2 feet above where it exits the roof, which you will get if you purchase a stove from Hastings.
- The chimney crown — the sloping cement shoulders at the top of the chimney — is beveled, which helps air flow.
