Chimney Top Dampers & Caps:

As much as we all like our brick fireplaces, they are the most inefficient part of any house. What you add to it is what makes it efficient.

Chimney top dampers are great for 3 reasons:
1) If your metal damper is gone or you have no way to seal out the cold air.
2) Your chimney has a down draft issue with the fireplace upstairs.
3) You just want extra protection from cold air coming thru your fireplace.


Chimney Caps:

With out a chimney cap on top of the chimney rain, leaves and animals can get into the chimney. Rain being the worst of the 3 causing the mortar in the brick and flu joints to deteriorate over time and causing the chimney to erode from the ground up.

We can install your chimney cap today!


(The picture above shows the importance of regular maintenance and inspection. While servicing this fireplace we found this piece of wood in the service area of this unit and as you can see it has been smoldering every time the fireplace was used. This was a carbon monoxide and house fire issue waiting to happen. )
