What chimneys face in the 248/947 area
Geographically, 248/947 covers Oakland County, from Troy and Rochester Hills to Bloomfield Hills, Birmingham, Farmington Hills, Novi and Southfield. It is an old housing stock: of about 552,000 homes and apartments, roughly 58% were built before 1980 and 7.5% before 1940, and the median home dates from the 1970s. About 67% are single-family detached houses.
Troy is a city in Oakland County in the U.S. state of Michigan.
Heating season runs long. NOAA's 1991–2020 normals for Detroit Metro Airport, MI show about 6,067 heating degree days a year, a January average of 25.8°F, and about 45 inches of snow. Those freeze-thaw cycles slowly break down masonry. A cracked crown, spalling brick or a missing cap lets water in, and water is what does the most damage to a chimney.
By Census count, about 85% of households heat mainly with utility gas and about 12% with electricity. Wood is the main heat in fewer than 2 in 100 homes, so most fireplaces here are for cool evenings, and gas fireplaces and inserts are common. It sits in IECC climate zone 5A. Wood, gas or oil, the NFPA 211 standard says chimneys, fireplaces and vents should be inspected once a year.
