Chimney Caps & Covers
Flue caps, chimney
tops, and chimney covers come in many different sizes and shapes. Here
we will help you determine what type of cap you will need for your
chimney.
If you already know what you need, please click through the categories
to the left starting at "Chimney Supplies". If you are unsure,
we will try to help, read on...
We will start off by asking a series of questions so we can quickly
get you where you need to go.
Is your chimney metal or masonry? Metal, click
here Masonry, read on....
Masonry Chimney:
- Do you
already have a masonry cap like slate or concrete and just need
to screen it in? If yes, Click here for our stainless
steel mesh. If not, read on...
- Do you
have a single clay liner, sticking up out of your chimney? (The
clay liner will be sort of orange in color.) If yes, you will
want a Single
Flue Chimney Cap. If not, read on.....
- Do you have multiple clay
liners sticking up out of your chimney or no liners at all?
If Yes, you will want a Multi-Flue Chimney Top
That covers most all masonry chimney applications. In some cases,
a custom cap needs to be made. If that is the case in your instance,
you will need to call or fax (fax preferred) us with your chimney
and flue dimensions so we can get a quote to you. Once our Build-To-Order
program is set up, you will be able to do it right online.
Metal Chimney:
Metal chimneys can be a bit tricky in
that they come in several different types. There is Solid-Pack (sometimes called
double wall) that has solid insulation between two walls of pipe.
Then there is air-insulated; Air Insulated comes in double
wall and triple wall. If you know
what type you have click here. If you are unsure, read on.....
As the names imply, double wall air-insulated
has two pipes with an airspace between and triple wall has three
pipes with air between each wall.
Ok..... so how do you tell what you have? There are a couple of
ways. First, and easiest, would be to "thump" the outside of your
chimney with your finger or anything else that will give you a sound
against the pipe. If you get a "twang" or a ring like it is hollow,
then it is a safe bet that you have an air-insulated chimney.
If you get a "thud", then the next step would be to check thickness
of the pipe to be sure you have a solid-pack. Take the chimney cap
off and measure the inside diameter and then the outside diameter
(many times once you take the cap off, you can see the air between
the pipes). If the OD (outside dimension) is 3" more than the ID,
it's a pretty safe bet you have an air-insulated chimney (ie; 6"
inside diameter, 10" outside diameter = air-insulated chimney).
If there is less than 3" (ie; 8" ID and 10 1/2" OD) then you have
a solid pack.
- If you have
determined that you have a solidpack chimney,
click
here
- If you have
an air-insulated
chimney, you must have a special cap that will allow the air
between the walls to vent properly. Without that proper venting, the
chimney will get very hot on the outer wall and could catch the house
on fire. Caps
