Learn MoreWhat we watch for in Whittier
Bungalows cluster near Uptown, while East Whittier and the plains went to ranch tracts, and only about 1 home in 8 is newer than 1980. Puente Hills streets bring their own conditions. Few cities have as direct a reason to camera-check a chimney, and we explain results house by house. Uptown's older brick, along with many houses and their chimneys, took direct damage from Whittier Narrows in 1987. Streets higher in the hills get hotter, drier air and stronger wind, and weather elsewhere sits between coast and valley.
What Could Feed a Fire
A rebuilt top section on an old flue, where the lower half kept its cracks and a route for heat.
How Fumes Could Get In
A 1987 repair covering only the outside of a chimney, with cracked tile left inside the Uptown home.
What We Check First
Any post-1987 repair and whether it reached the flue, by camera from below the rebuilt section.
