What chimneys face in the 251 area

Geographically, 251 covers coastal southwest Alabama, from Mobile and Semmes across the bay to Daphne, Fairhope, Foley, Gulf Shores and Orange Beach. Census figures count about 362,000 homes and apartments here. About 39% were built before 1980 (3.1% before 1940), and the median home dates from the 1980s. About 69% are single-family detached houses.

Mobile is a city and the county seat of Mobile County, Alabama, United States. The population was 187,041 at the 2020 census and estimated at 204,689 following an annexation in 2023, making it the second-most populous city in Alabama.

The heating season is short. NOAA's 1991–2020 normals for Mobile, AL show about 1,616 heating degree days a year, a January average of 51.1°F.

By Census count, about 73% of households heat mainly with electricity and about 23% with utility gas. 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 2A (91%), 3A (9%). Wood, gas or oil, the NFPA 211 standard says chimneys, fireplaces and vents should be inspected once a year.
