I'm trying to figure out how to build a good fire quickly. I just switched from wood tee pee newspaper under to wood tee pee newspaper ON the grate. It worked great!

There is about 8 miles of "nothing" (brush and trees - state parkland) between here and the ocean. It hasn't burned seriously in around 50 years, and I ain't about to help it along. Every day I still see the aftermath of the big 1994 Malibu fires while driving to work; some of the people never rebuilt and there are bare foundations and chimneys sticking out of the multi-million dollar an acre vacant lots off PCH. Scary crap.
I might research the exact building/fire codes a little more just out of curiousity. I know the earthquake vs. chimney syndrome is another major concern in SoCal. Apparently after the Northridge quake, a lot of chimneys got "sub par" repairs or didn't get fixed and then were leaky/unstable. So I think the building codes since then have tightend up a bit. |
