The Watch Lake North Green Lake Volunteer Fire Department (WLNGLVFD) Interim Fire Chief Guy Poliseno would like to remind everyone who uses a fireplace and/or wood stove for heating, to have his or her chimney cleaned before the cold season approaches.

This will eliminate the build-up of creosote in the lining of your chimney and reduce the risk of chimney fires.
