The O.C.S.A. credential was established in 1983 to provide homeowners a means to measure a chimney sweep's technical expertise. In addition to passing a rigorous examination, each person wishing to hold a O.C.S.A. certification must also agree to abide by a stringent Code of Ethics. We feel this is critical to protecting homeowners from potential scams.
When you become a certified sweep you will be more effective in your profession to educate your customers and keep homes safe!. When I was a very young chimney sweep, my father brought me to the Oregon Chimney Sweep Association to learn more about the technology of fireplace chimneys. He gave me the OCSA study guide.
OCSA is the only Pacific Northwest recognized trade association for chimney professionals. We strongly recommend that people take a few steps when considering which chimney sweep will perform an annual inspection or related service on their chimney or vent. Because proper care and attention to service can help protect people from unnecessary fires and carbon monoxide poisonings, it is important to choose the professional wisely.

A chimney helps your household air stay breathable. Chimney fires can burn explosively - noisy and dramatic enough to be detected by neighbors or people passing by.
