Even Firefighters Love Mad Hatter Chimney Sweep !

REVIEW

Mad Hatter is an outstanding chimney sweep service. As a firefighter, I am most aware of the dangers of uncleaned chimneys. Every year at about this time we are very busy responding to chimney fires that have gone uncleaned! Being aware of this I keep MY chimney clean at all times…imagine my shock when after hiring Mad Hatter he removed a huge amount of flammable debris from MY chimney. Mad Hatter did a complete inspection of my flues,fireboxes, shelves and all other parts of the chimney and cleaned them all better than I expected. I whole-heartedly recommend Mad Hatter for all your chimney services. Marvin E Larry Engine 16 Seattle

Installation

  1. Open the installation program by double clicking on its icon.
  2. Select the language you want to use (both for installation and later when using WinSCP).

  3. On Welcome and License Agreement screens click Next after reviewing them.
  4. You will be prompted to select a setup type. For basic setup, choose Typical installation.
  5. Then you will be prompted for Initial User Settings. This mainly allows you to select user interface style. If you have used (and enjoyed) file managers like Total Commander, Servant Salamander or Norton Commander before, keep default Commander interface. Otherwise you will probably be more familiar with Explorer interface.

  6. After you select the interface, the Ready to Install screen opens. On this screen, you can review the installation options you’ve selected. Click Install to start the installation.
  7. A brief installation process will take place. You may have to restart your computer. If you choose not to restart, some WinSCP functions may not be available until you do so.
