The chimney crown is really important. It functions as a protective concrete umbrella or rooftop for your whole chimney. This shields your flue and chimney from rain and various other elements.
When the chimney crown gets fractures or ends up being damaged whatsoever, it allows rain water seep through the chimney and expand and contract. This can trigger severe damage to the entire chimney if not repaired. When found early, standard repair services can be made to stop issues from taking place.
If cracking in the chimney crown is small, the fractures can be filled with patch and a waterproof sealer can be applied on top. This will securely prevent water from entering.
In circumstances where there is much more extensive damage to the crown, it might be necessary to reconstruct it. If the chimney is still in good condition, then it's possible to rebuild just the crown. This will protect the chimney for a lot more years. It's important to have a professional chimney repair inspect the crown, flue, and whole chimney to make sure all areas are safe.
A chimney cap safeguards your home in lots of ways. It keeps rainfall, snow, and, dirt and animals out of your fireplace and also protects against hot sparks and also embers from flying out and into your roofing. You should never run your fireplace or wood burning stove without a chimney cap.
Chimney caps are made of galvanized or stainless steel, light weight aluminum, or copper. Our chimney service technicians can replace your chimney cap or mount a new one on your chimney if you don't have one yet.
Many people confuse the chimney damper with the flue. The flue is the interior of the chimney that smoke travels through. The damper is the portion of the chimney that blocks air flow to the outside.

It's far better to set up a top sealing damper. They are less expensive, and also every reliable. A top sealing damper will keep cold drafts as well as unwanted weather outside. A considerable amount of air movement can leak in via the chimney from the exterior, making your home feel colder in the wintertime. This can easily amount to hundreds of dollars annually in added heating expenses.
