Chimney care in the 606 area
Around Somerset, London and Ashland, chimneys see both humid summers and freezing winters. Summer humidity can make a fireplace smell of creosote, and winter freeze-thaw cycles open up crowns and mortar joints. Chimney swifts nest in many open flues from spring to fall, so book cap installs and sweeps for after they leave.
The Census Bureau counts about 414,400 homes and apartments in the 606 territory. 45.1% were built before 1980 and 7.4% before 1940, close to the Kentucky figure of 48.6% built before 1980. The median home here dates from the 1980s, and 64.3% of homes are single-family detached houses.
66.9% of occupied homes heat mainly with electricity and 18.2% with utility gas. Wood is the main heating fuel in 4.8% of homes, higher than the national rate of 1.5%.
Wood heat is common in this area. Homes that burn wood as their main heat build creosote faster than occasional fireplace users, so plan on more frequent cleaning.
Under the 2021 International Energy Conservation Code, the territory is in climate zone 4A (mixed, humid).
The 606 territory is home to roughly 890,000 people across 407 ZIP codes in Pulaski County, Pike County, Laurel County, Boyd County and 39 more counties.
