Know before you buy
The Super Cap is specifically engineered for non-standard or oversized chimneys that standard caps cannot accommodate. Its expansive 18"x34" base and adjustable crossbar system allow it to fit flue sizes as small as 11"x27" that would otherwise require a custom-fabricated solution.
Unlike caps with fixed, welded bars, this model features crossbars that can be repositioned to align with your specific flue layout. Once you have achieved the desired fit, the bars are secured with an anchor system and a tack weld to ensure they remain stable and immovable.
The black powder coat finish serves a dual purpose. It provides a clean, modern look that blends well with most rooflines while adding an extra layer of corrosion resistance to the underlying stainless steel construction.
The 3/4" mesh is designed to keep debris, birds, and small animals out of your chimney flue while still allowing for proper airflow and smoke ventilation. It is a standard size that balances effective protection with the need to prevent creosote buildup caused by restricted drafting.
No, this cap requires assembly upon arrival. The adjustable nature of the crossbars means you will need to position and secure them to match your specific chimney dimensions during the installation process.
