Learn MoreWhat we watch for in Vernon
Food plants and cold storage fill Vernon, with only about a hundred homes and few residential fireplaces. Most residents rent. If yours has one, we scan it and tell you and the owner what it means, with no pretending this is a typical neighborhood. Salt exposure is low this far inland, and weather swings stay mild compared with the far valleys. Winter rain still finds cracked crowns, older tile here went through the 1987 Whittier Narrows shaking, and Rule 445 no-burn days apply here.
What Could Feed a Fire
Old creosote in one of a few rarely used residential flues, where a fire may be lit only once in a long while.
How Fumes Could Get In
Tile cracked by the 1987 shaking in an older rental home, with the tenant unaware of what lies behind the wall.
What We Check First
Whether the flue is usable at all, by camera, since homes and fireplaces are so rare here.

We often visit Boyle Heights, Huntington Park and Bell on the same day as Vernon.
