Invest In A NFI-Certified Technician

The NFI (or National Fireplace Institute) is a non-profit organization that trains workers all throughout the country on how to safely and effectively install various types of fireplaces and other appliances. By going through their extensive training process, sweeps are given the opportunity to provide their customers with the best care possible, giving them peace of mind and reassurance while operating their system year after year.

Needless to say, obtaining an NFI certification is no easy feat, and it takes a lot of time and dedication to study the provided material and get through the lengthy exam process. And it doesn’t stop there! Because this field is ever-evolving and consistently bringing in new techniques and updated technology, an NFI certification is only valid for 3 years. That means sweeps need to renew it on a regular basis in order to maintain this elite status.
