Chimneys and homes in the 609 area
The 609/640 territory covers central and southern coastal New Jersey (with the 640 overlay), from Trenton and Princeton in Mercer County to Atlantic City, Egg Harbor, Ocean City, Long Beach Island and Cape May on the Shore. It is an old housing stock: of about 556,000 homes and apartments, roughly 55% were built before 1980 and 15% before 1940, and the median home dates from the 1970s. About 59% are single-family detached houses.
Trenton is the capital of New Jersey and the seat of Mercer County, and from November 1 to December 24, 1784, it was the capital of the United States. Trenton and Princeton are the two principal cities of a metro area that covers all of Mercer County.
Winters are moderate. NOAA's 1991–2020 normals for Atlantic City International Airport, NJ show about 4,701 heating degree days a year, a January average of 34.1°F, and about 17.4 inches of snow. Rain and the occasional freeze still work on brick and mortar over the years, so a cracked crown or a missing cap is worth fixing early.
Census figures put utility gas as the main heating fuel in about 71% of occupied homes and electricity in about 18%. 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. The area falls in IECC climate zone 4A (65%), 5A (35%). Whatever the fuel, NFPA 211, the national standard for chimneys, fireplaces and vents, calls for a yearly inspection.
