What chimneys face in the 254 area
Geographically, 254 covers Central Texas, from Killeen, Fort Cavazos and Copperas Cove to Temple, Belton and Waco. Much of it is newer: of roughly 389,000 homes and apartments, about 31% were built in 2000 or later and the median home dates from the 1980s, though 42% still predate 1980. About 67% are single-family detached houses.
The heating season is short. NOAA's 1991–2020 normals for Waco Regional Airport, TX show about 2,080 heating degree days a year, a January average of 47.4°F.
By Census count, about 75% of households heat mainly with electricity and about 19% 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 (89%), 3A (11%). Wood, gas or oil, the NFPA 211 standard says chimneys, fireplaces and vents should be inspected once a year.
