Local conditions
What West Hartford does to a chimney
Every town wears on masonry differently. These are the conditions we pay attention to when inspecting West Hartford homes.
| Colder winters, more freeze-thaw cycles | Water that enters hairline cracks expands as it freezes — the main driver of crown cracking and failing mortar joints. |
|---|---|
| A wide range of housing stock | Conditions vary street to street — from original masonry that has weathered decades to newer construction needing routine cap and crown care. |
Chimneys in West Hartford
What the housing stock tells us
West Hartford has about 27,000 housing units and one of the oldest housing stocks in the state — roughly 40 percent built before 1950 and about 65 percent before 1960. The West Hill Historic District holds some of the finest of it. Central Connecticut winters are colder than the shoreline, so freeze-thaw damage to crowns and mortar is the routine finding. The other big local story is heating: this is CNG natural-gas territory and a very large number of original oil furnaces have been converted to gas. A flue built for oil is usually oversized for gas, and the cooler, wetter exhaust condenses inside it — the reason a Level 2 look and a resized liner so often follow a conversion.
