Learn MoreWhat we watch for in Hermosa Beach
Hermosa houses sit close together, and a chimney top may be a few feet from a neighbor's window or deck. We check that the flue is tall enough to draw well and that exhaust is not being pushed back toward an open window, yours or the house next door. Sea spray keeps the air wet most of the time this close to the sand. Steel caps and dampers rust through quickly, and a damper rusted shut or stuck halfway changes how the whole fireplace drafts.
What Could Feed a Fire
Sparks landing on a neighbor's deck or roof from a short flue with a rusted cap.
How Fumes Could Get In
Exhaust pushed back toward open windows on tight lots, and dampers rusted halfway shut.
What We Check First
Flue height and cap condition, then the damper for rust.
