Pizza oven repair in Key Biscayne.

On Key Biscayne the island air carries salt into every hinge, and ovens at seasonal homes may wait months between bakes, so the first pizza night of the winter season often reveals a sticking door, a soaked floor or a nest in the flue.

What Key Biscayne does
to a pizza oven.

Low ground and direct exposure to the Atlantic make Key Biscayne one of the first Miami areas usually evacuated ahead of a hurricane, and the village lies in Evacuation Zone A.

Condominium complexes sent the island's population soaring, and in 2007 voters required that future land use changes go to a public vote.

A canal William Matheson dug in the 1920s once stretched from the bay across most of the island.

In 2004 the village completed a civic center that houses its fire, police and administration buildings.

On the water

When a hurricane or a coastal storm is forecast, a pizza oven by salt water has its gas closed at the shutoff, its door shut and its chimney capped, and afterward it stays cold until the burner box and the dome have been checked for water.

Seasonal houses

Owners closing a seasonal house help the pizza oven most by shutting its gas, sweeping out cold ash that would draw moisture and covering the dome only once it is dry, since a cover over a damp oven locks the water inside.

Tower living

A pizzeria at the foot of a tower sends its deck or conveyor oven's exhaust up a long shared duct, and a weak draw there shows as smoke at the oven mouth or heat trapped in the kitchen, so the duct's fan is checked along with the oven.

When a pizza oven
cannot wait in Key Biscayne.

In Key Biscayne as anywhere, these four put whoever stands at the oven's mouth, and the building around the flue, at risk, and they mean the gas or the power stays off until we arrive: a gas smell at the oven or its supply line, flame escaping the mouth or showing behind the panel or up the chimney, a hot electrical or burning smell, and smoke that fills the room instead of leaving by the flue.
