Learn MoreWhat we watch for in Lynwood
Close to half the homes here go back before 1950, and houses built on old dairy land through the 1950s fill the rest. Brick masonry is typical where a fireplace exists, and at this age the flue may have had several repairs, or none. Frost is rare here, so the bigger story is 1933. Compton next door was heavily damaged that year and Lynwood was shaken, and a stack built before then may have been through it. Rule 445 no-burn alerts can limit fires from November through February.
What Could Feed a Fire
Mortar gaps in a chimney old enough to have lived through 1933, with heat reaching framing that dried out long ago.
How Fumes Could Get In
Exhaust leaking through old repairs or never-fixed quake cracks into a home that sits on a modest lot.
What We Check First
Age of the brick and any past repairs, with camera work focused on where those repairs end.
