Comments:
The fireplace is in very good condition. The chimney however has a fair amount of soot buildup, and should
be cleaned. The mortar cap on the top of the chimney is also cracked in several locations, and one section
of mortar is entirely detached from the brick and mortar. I recommend that the mortar cap be repaired.
Moisture intrusion into the mortar cap, and the brick chimney, will rapidly deteriorate both. Please refer
to the section entitled “Home Periodic Maintenance and Energy Efficiency Recommendations - fireplaces”
near the end of the report as well.
I observed soot around the exterior of the fireplace screen at the top of the screen. Upon further
investigation, I determined that the clamps attaching the screen and door unit to the fireplace were
extremely loose, and that the right-hand clamp was hanging from the screen frame. I re-attached the
loose clamp, and tightened both clamps to the appropriate torque.
