What chimneys face in the 608/353 area

Geographically, 608/353 covers south central and southwestern Wisconsin, from Madison, Sun Prairie and Portage to Janesville, Beloit, Platteville and La Crosse. It is an old housing stock: of about 577,000 homes and apartments, roughly 53% were built before 1980 and 16% before 1940, and the median home dates from the 1970s. About 63% are single-family detached houses.

Heating season runs long. NOAA's 1991–2020 normals for Madison Dane Regional Airport, WI show about 7,138 heating degree days a year, a January average of 19.4°F, and about 51.8 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 61% of households heat mainly with utility gas and about 20% with electricity. Wood is the main heat in about 3.3%; most fireplaces here are used for comfort rather than everyday heat. 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.
