FAQ
The Chimney Cap Answers You Need
We highly recommend that every chimney be fitted with a chimney cap – for several reasons:
-
Chimney caps stop water from entering the chimney liner or flue by directing it away from the center and off the sides of a chimney.
-
Chimney caps will keep debris such as leaves, twigs, and trash floating through the air out of your chimney.
-
Chimney caps should be installed on your chimney to increase the draft – and therefore the efficiency – of your chimney.
-
Chimney caps will also keep birds and animals out of your chimney.
There is no better investment in preventative maintenance for your chimney system than to cap it.
Would you ever leave anything of value to you exposed to the elements? Eventually, it would become damaged, ruined, and non-functional. The same is true for your chimney and its integrated appliances.
There are many factors to take into consideration when choosing your cap:
-
Do you need individual flue chimney caps?
-
Would a multi-flue chimney cap suit your needs better?
-
Would you prefer a metal other than stainless steel, such as copper?
-
If your home has a chase box covering your chimney, do you have a chase cover?
Chimney Caps
A chimney cap seals off the flue system to prevent birds, animals, and debris from getting into the chimney. A cap is attached directly to the brick of masonry chimneys.
Chase Cover
A chase cover is a metal piece that fits over the chimney chase on chimneys with metal, vinyl, or wood siding to prevent water from entering the chimney.
The #1 issues that you WILL encounter when you don’t have a chimney cap on your chimney are moisture damaging the bricks, eroding mortar joints, unwelcome odors, and damaged metal fireboxes and dampers.
Animals love to build nests in chimneys. Squirrels and raccoons can crawl down and live in your fireplace and frequently get into the house and cause damage. Birds build nests during the spring and summer.
Sparks can ignite the roof when trees are close and are shedding their leaves or needles.
Caps also help your fire burn more effectively by alleviating many drafting problems.
The wind will enhance your chimney’s drafting properties by blowing across the top of the capped flue. Without a cap, the wind will blow down an open chimney flue and billow smoke into the house.
We have replaced many inexpensive store-bought chimney caps with stainless steel caps. Admiralty Chimney uses only stainless steel and copper caps with lifetime warranties for long-lasting quality.
