The Fireplaces & Chimneys of Osawatomie, Kansas
BY: ROBERT BERRY, OWNER OF FULL SERVICE CHIMNEY
Because of the town’s longstanding history and abundance of aged homes, we often see many of the same needs when our technicians visit. It is crucial to have your fireplace and chimney regularly inspected to keep them in safe working order. For example, masonry chimneys may often need bricks replaced or areas where a new seal is required. This maintains structural integrity and protects the bricks from the elements. This is also true for crowns on top of the masonry chimney structure.

Flue Liner Installation and RepairÂ
Many older chimneys were not built with flue liners. Both traditional woodburning fireplaces and more modern gas fireplaces should have flue liners installed to make the chimney safer and prevent house fires that could have otherwise been avoided with regular use.Â
Whether you are installing a new fireplace in your home or want to ensure your flue liner is working correctly, the Full Service Chimney team is here to help. Contact us today to learn how we can help restore the flue liner in your Osawatomie, Kansas home.Â
Unlined Fireplace Insert
Chimney Relining Â
The National Safety Board conducted a test on unlined chimneys and discovered that the heat from the fire and smoke could ignite the home’s combustibles in as little as 3 1/2 hours. However, a functioning chimney liner can help keep the home safe while also protecting the chimney.Â
When appropriately installed with insulation, stainless steel chimney liners protect from the corrosive acids found in gas and woodburning fireplaces. They can even tolerate minor fires without the dangerous issue of cracked fireplace flue tiles.Â

A Quick History of Osawatomie, KS
Osawatomie got its name from a clever combination of the two rivers that border it, the Osage and the Pottawatomie. These rivers were named after the Native American tribes that lived in the area. Eventually, the Osage River was called Marias Des Cygnes by French settlers, and the name stuck. The area was settled by abolitionists in 1854 who intended to help Kansas become a free state and aid slaves to freedom. Reverend Samuel Adair and his wife Florella built a cabin to serve as a community member’s mission. Florella’s half-brother, John Brown, moved to Osawatomie with five of his sons in 1855. Â
John was a staunch abolitionist and brought a wagon full of weapons to give to free-staters to fight the southern sympathizers with. John Brown’s efforts became a major part of Osawatomie’s history as he led the Battle of Osawatomie, which led to deaths for both sides and most of the town being burned down in 1856. The townspeople rebuilt and began to grow. Osawatomie was the host of the first Kansas Republican Convention in 1859. In 1866, the state government opened the first mental health hospital on this side of the Mississippi River. The hospital is still running to this day.Â
The city was chartered in 1883. When the railroad was built through Osawatomie in 1879, it spurred growth and commerce and brought the town population to 2,500 by 1910. Over the last century, the town population has stayed around 4,000 people. Osawatomie residents enjoy their own school system with a modern fitness and aquatic center for the public, a city lake, and an 18 hole golf course. Osawatomie is proud of its past and has a John Brown museum, several historical sites and buildings, and yearly festivals to keep the memories and stories alive.Â
