Chimney care in the 812 area
Winters around Evansville, Bloomington and Terre Haute mean long, heavy heating seasons and deep freeze-thaw cycles. Wood stoves, inserts and fireplaces that run for months build creosote quickly, and ice and snow load test crowns, caps and flashing. Plan an inspection and sweep in late summer or early fall, before the busy season starts.
The Census Bureau counts about 674,200 homes and apartments in the 812 territory. 54.5% were built before 1980 and 15.3% before 1940, close to the Indiana figure of 56.4% built before 1980. The median home here dates from the 1970s, and 73.2% of homes are single-family detached houses.
43.2% of occupied homes heat mainly with utility gas and 42.2% with electricity. Wood is the main heating fuel in 3.1% of homes, higher than the national rate of 1.5%.
With 15.3% of homes built before 1940, many chimneys here are older masonry. Older flues can be unlined or have clay tile liners that have cracked over the years, which a camera inspection of the flue will show. 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 812 territory (with overlay 930) is home to roughly 1,538,000 people across 319 ZIP codes in Vanderburgh County, Monroe County, Clark County, Vigo County and 33 more counties.
