Learn MoreWhat we tell Irvine parents
Architect William Pereira's master plan guided Irvine from the 1960s on, and half the housing has gone up since 2002. Most families here have gas or factory-built units, and more of them rent than own, so hot glass and clear responsibility come first. Santa Ana gusts can work at a cap and carry embers, and northeast of town the 2007 Santiago Fire burned the foothills. The San Joaquin Hills thrust sits beneath the hills south of town, and the climate is mild and warm in summer.
Check at Home
If you rent, ask the property manager whether the mesh barrier is on your gas unit, and take a photo if it is missing.
Kids and Pets
Young kids in a new home learn the house quickly, so show them on day one that the fireplace front is a do-not-touch zone.
What We Look At First
The glass barrier on gas units, then the flue and cap on older villages.
Next Door
We also take calls from Newport Beach, Woodbridge, Turtle Rock.
