Local housing stock
The typical Worthington house dates to 1963, with close to nine in ten of the stock (90.1 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly early 1960s work. Around a median of 1963 with nine in ten houses older, the houses were built with a masonry chimney sized for a furnace and a water heater together, and the furnaces have since been changed for sealed units that vent out through a wall.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 35.76 inches, 4.05 of them in June, against a warm season that peaks at 74.2 degrees in July; both figures recorded at COLUMBUS OHIO STATE UNIV AP, 3.3 miles away. June is the wettest month at 4.05 inches of a 36-inch year and four months average a low below freezing, so the heating season is long and the chimney is cold through all of it; a flue too large for what it carries never warms up.
How water losses tend to end in Worthington
- A flue far larger than the appliance left on it, so the gases cool before they reach the top
- Condensation forming inside the masonry, so the chimney is wetted from within all winter
- Damage appearing on an interior wall, so it reads as a roof problem and the flue is never suspected
