Know before you buy
304 stainless steel is highly resistant to rust and corrosion, making it ideal for the harsh, moisture-heavy environment of a chimney flue. It provides superior longevity compared to galvanized steel or aluminum, ensuring your cap won't degrade over time.
The base of the cap is designed to accommodate a 2.5-inch adjustment range, allowing you to tighten or loosen the fit to match your specific flue size. This ensures a secure, custom-like installation without needing specialized tools.
Yes, the 18-gauge expanded metal mesh is specifically designed to block birds, squirrels, and other small animals from entering your chimney. It also serves as an effective spark arrestor to prevent debris from igniting.
Most sizes are stackable for convenient storage and shipping, with the exception of the 8x21 and 8x27 models. If you are ordering multiple units, please verify your specific dimensions to see if they qualify for the stackable design.
No assembly is required, and the cap is designed for straightforward installation by the homeowner. You simply adjust the base to fit your flue and secure it in place.
