Why Older Chimneys in Palma Need Extra Care
Older chimneys in Palma may have hidden damage or missing safety parts, so regular inspection is important.
Published: April 22, 2026
Answer
What makes older chimneys in Palma more risky?
Older chimneys can develop damage, lose protective covers, or lack spark arrestors, all of which can make them less safe. In Palma, where many buildings are older or used by changing tenants, these issues may be missed if inspections are irregular. A chimney that looks normal from the outside can still create a serious hazard indoors.
