Learn MoreWhat we tell Paramount parents
Paramount once ran a major hay market, and its Hay Tree still stands as a symbol. Most households rent now, and a family in an older one-story place with a brick fireplace should get a straight answer about it before lighting a log. Sun, moisture and sheer age slowly erode crowns and mortar here, with low clouds in May and June. Newport-Inglewood is not far to the southwest, enough to make old brick a question even if nothing looks wrong from the street.
Check at Home
Hold a lit match near the opening before any fire, with the damper open, and if the smoke drifts toward the room, wait and ask.
Kids and Pets
Keep matches and lighters locked away after that test, since a preschooler can copy what a parent just did at the hearth.
What We Look At First
How well the older flue draws, then the worn crown and any brick joints.
