Chimney Sweep in Edgerton, KS

What kinds of chimneys do Edgerton homes have?

Two kinds dominate: 1970s fireplaces and old brick chimneys from the original town. The 1970s are Edgerton’s biggest decade by far, with about a third of its roughly 700 housing units, and about 17 percent of homes were built before 1940. Another 23 percent have been built since 2000. The median year built is 1976, and about 89 percent of homes are detached single-family houses.

Because the community is small, the Census estimates behind these figures carry more uncertainty than for a large city; treat them as approximate.

What should Edgerton homeowners watch for?

• 1970s fireplaces: many are metal heat-circulating fireboxes set into masonry, and the metal rusts and warps after 50 years.
• Pre-1940 chimneys: old brick chimneys may be unlined and should be inspected before they are used.
• Newer homes: gas fireplace vents and dryer vents need a yearly check.
