Is Your Chimney Missing A Quality Chimney Cap?

A chimney cap, also known as a rain cover or spark arrestor, is a cover that’s installed on the topmost part of your chimney. If you take a look around and notice all the chimneys that aren’t properly fitted with a cap, you might be tempted to think they can’t possibly be all that important, but the truth is, chimney caps are a must. They play an essential role in protecting the chimney and ensuring safety in the home.

A chimney cap offers several benefits:

Enhancing the functionality and durability of the chimney by keeping water from getting into the chimney flue (Note: A dampened flue is one of the main causes of chimney performance problems and deterioration)
Keeping birds and small animals out of the chimney (and out of your home!)
Also serving as spark arrestors, catching burning sparks and embers that are carried up through the chimney, and preventing them from starting a fire on the roof or in nearby trees and shrubs.

In other words, the chimney cap plays a vital role in the maintenance and protection of your flue and chimney, and can help keep everything in working condition throughout the year.
