CHIMNEY CAPS

CHIMNEY CAP INSTALLATION

The purpose of a chimney cap is to cover the opening of the chimney. This way smoke can escape but debris cannot enter the chimney flue.

There are many varieties of chimney caps to choose from. Chimney caps can be made from aluminum, stainless steel, galvanized steel, or copper. Different metals provide different levels of strength & durability. Our technicians can show you a list of options to choose which style and color chimney cap you think would fit your property the best.

Chimney caps are a necessary addition to any home with a fireplace. Not only do they keep animals and debris out of your chimney, but they also help to prevent sparks from escaping.

Our chimney cap replacement service is guaranteed to give you peace of mind for many years. Honestly, All chimney caps we sell and install are guaranteed never to rust or fall off for the life of the home.

The Main Functions of a Chimney Cap

Rain Guard

Imagine your chimney’s flue being exposed and the entire chimney getting wet on the inside every time it rained.Too much exposure to moisture can increase the chances your chimney receives water damage; and water damage is not a small problem. Protect your chimney from water damage by installing a chimney cap.

Animal Guard

Without a barrier between the outdoors and your chimney, your chimney is just another hole for animals looking for a home. If there’s nothing there to stop them that’s a free invitation as far as it goes for birds and other animals to crawl into your chimney. They may feel safe but really any animal activity in your chimney would only put the animal and the home at risk. So protect the environment as well as your home by investing in a new chimney cap today.

Spark Arrestor

Chimney caps serve as something called a spark arrestor. As the name suggests, it contains any flammable debris that floats up through the top of the chimney from escaping and landing on your roof or any area outside of your chimney. If your chimney is not capped then there is nothing stopping these embers from escaping your chimney and causing a fire hazard to your home or its surrounding environment. 

BOLT ON CHIMNEY CAPS

Looking for basic protection for your chimney? A bolt on chimney cap replacement might be the right choice for you. These caps are available in painted steel, stainless steel, or copper, and attach to the flue tile protruding from the top of the chimney with bolts. Most bolt on caps only cover one flue, but they offer some protection for the cement crown below. All bolt on caps purchased and installed by Certified Chimney Inspections are guaranteed never to rust or fall off. So if you’re looking for a simple way to protect your chimney, a bolt on cap from Certified Chimney Inspections is a great option.

SMOKTITE
Improve the operation of your fireplace and increase the safety of your home!

Smoktite is a highly insulative ceramic product that is used to seal, smooth, and insulate fireplace smoke chambers without removing the damper frame or adjacent brickwork that would be needed if done by hand.

Smoktite is applied with a hi-powered air compressor to seal the interior of the fireplace smoke chamber with a durable ceramic coating that is good up to 2291 degrees Fahrenheit and is impervious to moisture, acids, smoke, or vapors.

Sufficient training is required to apply the product. It must be mixed exactly to manufacturers specifications and the applicating equipment is extremely difficult to operate correctly and must be thoroughly cleaned immediately following each use. The ceramic solution will dry even fully submerged under water to an incredibly hard cement.

All Smoktite applications performed by Certified Chimney carry a lifetime guarantee on labor and material.
