Why Do I Need a Best Cap?
Damage prevention to your chimney system is the single best reason you should have a chimney cap.
Protection from weather
Rain & Snow can enter into the porous materials inside your chimney. The freeze / thaw cycle of moisture can chip away at the linings & masonry until they are unslable.
Pest control from Birds, Bats, Raccoons, Squirrels, and Rats
Animals have been known to nest and destroy the inside of chimneys, and as a worst case scenario get into your home bringing possible diseases with them
Spark & Ember containment
Chimney caps help prevent these fire starters from leaving the chimney area and falling onto your roof.
Debris control
Leaves, needles, and branches can get into the chimney. All these items create a severe fire hazard when clogging the opening.
How do I know I need a ``New`` chimney cap?
There are a few visual signs that can help you decide if you may need a new chimney cap.
Is your cap missing?
High winds can often knock a poorly secured or rusted cap from its perch.
Do you have draft or wind problems?
Does your stove or fireplace back up smoke in your home?
Is your chimney cap insecure or does it rattle in the wind?
Rusted caps, animals, high winds are all factors that can make a cap come loose.
Is your chimney cap rusty?
Galvanized steel can start to rust just after 4-5 years of use. Living in a salty environment can make this time period even shorter. Best Caps are made of stainless steel, are designed for life, and come with a lifetime warranty to back it up.
