Chimney care in the 785 area
Winters around Topeka, Lawrence and Manhattan 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 357,600 homes and apartments in the 785 territory. 61.2% were built before 1980 and 19.6% before 1940, close to the Kansas figure of 57.4% built before 1980. The median home here dates from the 1970s, and 71.4% of homes are single-family detached houses.
60.3% of occupied homes heat mainly with utility gas and 24.4% with electricity. Wood is the main heating fuel in 1.8% of homes, higher than the national rate of 1.5%.
With 19.6% 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.
Under the 2021 International Energy Conservation Code, 93% of residents live in climate zone 4A (mixed, humid), and the rest mostly in 5A (cool, humid).
