The problem is that elevation and forest cover mean longer, colder burn seasons than the rest of the state rarely gives you a dramatic warning; it delivers slow, cumulative damage that only shows up on an inspection. That's the entire argument for booking one every year, even in seasons you barely use the fireplace.
