Chimney care in the 225 area
Around Baton Rouge, Denham Springs and Prairieville, high humidity, heavy rain and tropical-storm winds are the main threats to a chimney. Water gets in through crowns, caps and flashing, rusts metal chase covers and dampers, and can lead to musty fireplace odors. Fireplaces are used less often, so nests and debris often go unnoticed. Dryer vents work hard all year, which makes regular lint removal important.
The Census Bureau counts about 377,500 homes and apartments in the 225 territory. 37.4% were built before 1980 and 3.5% before 1940, lower than the Louisiana figure of 48.2% built before 1980. The median home here dates from the 1980s, and 66.1% of homes are single-family detached houses.
64.3% of occupied homes heat mainly with electricity and 33.5% with utility gas. Wood is the main heating fuel in 0.3% of homes, lower than the national rate of 1.5%.
33.5% of homes here were built in 2000 or later, so many fireplaces are factory-built or gas units. These still need their vents and manufacturer-listed parts checked, and the dryer vent runs in newer homes are often long.
Under the 2021 International Energy Conservation Code, the territory is in climate zone 2A (hot, humid).
The 225 territory is home to roughly 877,000 people across 119 ZIP codes in East Baton Rouge Parish, Livingston Parish, Ascension Parish, Iberville Parish and 7 more counties.
