Learn MoreWhat we check first on Oxnard chimneys
Salt air is the quiet hazard in Oxnard. It rusts a cap and its spark screen until the mesh opens up, and a screen with holes in it no longer holds an ember. We look at the cap first, then the liner and the creosote level. Wind off the ocean can push down an open flue and stall the draft, which leaves more smoke to cool and settle as creosote. A stainless cap and a sweep each season keep coastal flues drawing cleanly.
The Flue and the Fuel
How much creosote is in the flue, and what stage it has reached, on beach houses in Oxnard Shores and Silver Strand, planned neighborhoods in Riverpark, and older homes near downtown.
Embers and Wind
Every Oxnard cap gets its spark arrestor mesh checked for rust and holes, since a screen that has opened up no longer holds an ember.
The Liner
A cracked or missing liner lets the heat of a chimney fire reach the framing. We look at it with a light or a camera before saying the fireplace is fit to use.
NFPA 211 Level
Level 1 for a yearly check, Level 2 with a camera for an Oxnard home sale, a fuel change or after a chimney fire.
