About Emmaus
Emmaus was settled in the early 1700s by German Lutheran and Reformed Protestants.
Three homes in Emmaus built in the 1700s and early 1800s are on the National Register of Historic Places; the oldest building in town is the Shelter House from 1734.
Emaus Avenue keeps the town's spelling from before 1938.
What This Means for Your Emmaus Chimney
Older homes, older flues
Where homes date from before the 1940s, chimneys often have clay tile flues, soft lime mortar or no liner at all, and decades of freeze and thaw open the joints. A yearly inspection catches cracked tiles and failing mortar while the fix is still small. Read: What Is a Clay Flue Liner?

Half of the homes in Emmaus were built before 1957, and 27% date from before 1940, so a good share of chimneys here were built to older standards, with clay tile liners and crowns that are now decades old. With about 118 freezing nights a year in Lehigh County, water that gets into a crack freezes and widens it again and again, which is why we check the crown and flashing on every visit.
