stainless steel chimney cap
A stainless steel chimney cap should be installed if one isn’t already in place. Chimney Caps have an important function in the proper functioning of a fireplace. It keeps animals, rainwater, leaves and debris out of the chimney, and the mesh around the cap sides acts as a spark arrestor protecting the roof from burning embers starting a house fire. It also improves proper airflow up the flue. This small amount of metal protecting your chimney can prevent numerous mishaps from taking place and save a homeowner thousands of dollars in unnecessary chimney repair or damage expense
