Under Construction Finished Product
Chimney caps are made of copper or stainless steel and come with a limited lifetime warrenty from the manufacturer.
Custom sizes are available.
Chimney caps can:
1. Prevent birds and animals from nesting/entering the chimney and your home.
2. Prevent rain, snow and debris from entering the chimney. Moisture entering the chimney speeds the deterioration of masonry.
3. Helps with the reduction of wind related downdrafts.
4. Screen also serves as a spark arrestor for containing hot ash from damaging roof structures.
Chimneys and vents should be lined:
1. If the chimney/vent was built without terracotta flues or if the masonry flue structure is damaged.
2. If the masonry flue system is too large/small to properly serve the appliance (wood stove, furnance, gas stove, etc.) being vented. All appliances work most efficiently when the flue system is sized to the manufacturer's specifications.
