Business with a free niche: vacuum cleaning of chimneys and stoves. Show how modern chimney sweeps work

IN this article I showed how you can clean the chimney and the internal channels of the stove from soot. But these methods are more for prevention and instant results, they will not give.

Everyone remembers from books such a medieval profession as a chimney sweep. People with ropes, brushes and rugs were cleaning the chimneys of stoves and fireplaces in Europe. This had to be done regularly, since a clogged chimney reduced the efficiency of the fireplace, smoke could go into the premises. The escaping incandescent soot represented a great fire hazard for cities.

I was surprised, but this profession is becoming more widespread in our country. Because we have a territory with a harsh climate and with a large number of summer cottages and country yards with stove heating. But people work not according to the old technology with manual cleaning, but vacuum cleaning:

What are these people doing and how is such an effect achieved that soot flies out of the pipe? For this, devices for vacuum cleaning of chimneys are used:

In fact, it is the same gasoline blower, but with a metal centrifuge. Sell ​​them on the Internet at a cost from 15 to 35 thousand rub. Found the name of one inexpensive model: TCH ZZ 7930 (15 thous. rub.). See announcements on youla or avito.

A little expensive for a gasoline vacuum cleaner, which is designed to clean the area from leaves. But, despite such an inflated cost, the unit will pay off in a month. This service is absent in almost every village or village. It is only necessary to explain to the population why such cleaning of the chimney and stove is needed:

The furnace draft increases, the heat transfer of the fire increases (ash and soot do not isolate the masonry from heat), fire safety increases (hot ash does not fly out). The population will quickly understand the advantages and further word of mouth will spread information about your service, especially when everyone feels the effect of it.

You can save on equipment, two options:

1. You get a gasoline blower, their cost is from 9000 rubles:

You will try to blow through the chimney and stove in your own room. If he copes, then we work with them. If not, then you need to purchase and install a metal centrifuge with a higher capacity. They are produced by companies that manufacture industrial ventilation equipment. We'll have to look, in large cities it is easier to do this.

2. If you have an old electric motor, you can connect it to the centrifuge. And then the cleaning efficiency will be even higher, because higher speed and volume of pumped air. Example in the video:

Someone even installs an old grinder on the centrifuge. But it is not designed for long-term work, you will have to work with pauses. Chimney and pipe cleaning time - 15-20 minutes depending on the pollution. Moreover, it blows out not only soot, but ash from the entire curved system of the furnace chimneys.

An important point - warn your neighbors, because a lot of soot will fly. And if the wind is in their direction, then claims are not excluded. And observe safety precautions when working at height.

How to inform the population about your service? You print business cards, flyers and place a banner on your fence:

Flyers can be put in mailboxes or left in the doorway. How it goes - register as a self-employed (no individual entrepreneurs are needed). No need to go anywhere to register. All through the application on the phone or on the website. All accounting and payment of taxes is on the phone. The tax is only 4%, because you work with individuals (with legal entities - 6%). Perhaps the tax on professional income is the most convenient form of activity that the state once did. I can confidently say, tk. self-employed for the second year already.

If someone has used this service and provides it - write in the comments.

P.S. After the first comments, I decided to add this information. The process shown in the photos and videos is dirty, not environmentally friendly and the neighbors will clearly be against it.

To remove soot, a hose with filtration through a cyclone vacuum cleaner must be connected to the air duct. How to collect one from a bucket, I showed here. For complete filtration, air must be passed through water or a multi-layer cloth.
