The chimney crown is very important. It acts as a protective concrete umbrella or roof for your entire chimney. This shields your flue and also chimney from rain and other elements.
When the chimney crown gets fractures or comes to be damaged in any way, it allows rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can create serious damages to the whole chimney if not fixed. When found early, basic repairs can be made to stop issues from taking place.
If splitting in the chimney crown is minor, the cracks can be filled with patch and a waterproof sealant can be used on top. This will safely block water from entering.
In situations where there is much more extensive damage to the crown, it may be needed to rebuild it. If the chimney is still in good condition, then it's possible to rebuild only the crown. This will protect the chimney for a lot more years. It is essential to have a professional chimney repair check the crown, flue, and entire chimney to ensure all areas are safe.
A chimney cap safeguards your home in lots of ways. It keeps rain, snow, and, dirt and animals out of your fire place and prevents hot sparks and embers from flying out and into your roof. You should never run your fire place or wood burning stove without a chimney cap.
Chimney caps are constructed from galvanized or stainless steel, aluminum, or copper. Our chimney service professionals can replace your chimney cap or set up a brand-new one on your chimney if you don't have one yet.
Many individuals confuse the chimney damper with the flue. The flue is the inside of the chimney that smoke travels through. The damper is the component of the chimney that closes off air circulation to the outside. When a damper comes to be old, it requires repair service. Usually repairing or replacing the existing old metal damper can be expensive.
It's better to set up a top sealing damper. They are less expensive, and every efficient. A top sealing damper will keep cold drafts as well as unwanted weather outdoors. A significant amount of airflow can leak in through the chimney from the exterior, making your home really feel chillier in the winter. This can easily amount to hundreds of dollars annually in additional heating expenses.
