Chimneys and homes in the 618 area
The 618/730 territory covers southern Illinois, from Belleville, Edwardsville and Alton in the Metro East to Carbondale, Marion and Mount Vernon. It is an old housing stock: of about 547,000 homes and apartments, roughly 59% were built before 1980 and 16% before 1940, and the median home dates from the 1970s. About 75% are single-family detached houses.
Winters are moderate. NOAA's 1991–2020 normals for Belleville Siu Rsch, IL show about 4,209 heating degree days a year, a January average of 33.6°F, and about 11.2 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 50% of occupied homes and electricity in about 35%. Wood is the main heat in about 1.6%; most fireplaces here are used for comfort rather than everyday heat. The area falls in IECC climate zone 4A. Whatever the fuel, NFPA 211, the national standard for chimneys, fireplaces and vents, calls for a yearly inspection.
