Chimney Caps:
Chimney caps can provide both functional and aesthetic benefits. Depending on the type and design, the functional benefits can range from providing protection from weather, debris and critter entry into an individual flue, and range all the way to providing significant weather protection to the chimney structure itself.
Materials, Powder Coat finishes, as well as innovative designs have been introduced that along with excelling in the satisfying of functional requirements mentioned above, also provide aesthetic benefits that enhance not only the chimney's appearance, but the house as well.
Chimney Cap Options:
Single-Flue Style: Attaches to the clay flue tile.
Top Mounted Style: Attaches to the top of the chimney crown.
Outside Mounted Style: Attaches to the outside of the masonry structure and has a “skirt” which fits closely around the chimney crown.
Big Dripper Style: An Outside Mount style with additional features that provide even greater protection compared to a standard Outside Mount cap.
Lid Designs and avaiable materials:
Basic lid design
Hip-and-Ridge lid design
Stainless Steel
Powder-Coat Paint Finishes
Copper
