Learn MoreWhat we watch for in Maywood
Nearly 9 in 10 homes here predate 1980 and about 44 percent predate 1950, in a city almost fully built out. New houses are rare, so what you own likely came with its original chimney, and that flue needs a camera more than a guess. Late spring morning clouds keep a crown damp while winter rain does the rest. Quakes in 1933 and 1987 both reached this ground, a double history for the oldest brick. A Rule 445 alert can also rule out a wood fire on a winter night.
What Could Feed a Fire
Old creosote in a first-generation flue, close to neighbors on all sides in one of the county's tightest cities.
How Fumes Could Get In
Cracks left by two big quakes in the same old tile, 1933 and 1987, possibly never repaired.
What We Check First
Signs of two quakes in one flue, since many houses here went through both on original brick.
