One of the many jobs
One of the many jobs to be done during the winter months at Crofton Beam Engines is to sweep the boiler flues clean, inside our Lancashire boiler. We will then be ready for the next steaming season in 2025.
Our friends from Wilkins Chimney Sweep came along to do the job. They squeezed and crawled through the tight spaces in the boiler flues, sweeping them clean as they went along.
Although it is not one of the best jobs, it is an essential one. We need to make sure there are no potential blockages or buildups that would prevent the smooth flow of combustion gases through the flues in the boiler.
