Chimneys and homes in the 816 area

The 816/975 territory covers the Missouri side of the Kansas City metro and northwest Missouri, from Kansas City, Independence, Lee's Summit and Liberty to Blue Springs, Belton and St. Joseph. It is an old housing stock: of about 608,000 homes and apartments, roughly 57% were built before 1980 and 14% before 1940, and the median home dates from the 1970s. About 70% are single-family detached houses.

Kansas City is the largest city in Missouri, at the confluence of the Missouri and Kansas rivers.

Winters are long and cold. NOAA's 1991–2020 normals for Kansas City International Airport, MO show about 5,071 heating degree days a year, a January average of 29.0°F, and about 18.2 inches of snow. Repeated freezing and thawing is hard on brick, mortar and chimney crowns, which is why crown repair, repointing and chimney caps come up so often on older homes.

Census figures put utility gas as the main heating fuel in about 65% of occupied homes and electricity in about 29%. 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. Whatever the fuel, NFPA 211, the national standard for chimneys, fireplaces and vents, calls for a yearly inspection.
