Double Flue Chimney Caps
Protect
and extend the life of your flue and chimney.
The double chimney cap, is used for a chimney that has multi flues spaced
about 6 inches apart or less.
Here, a few measurements are required for a proper fit, and the flue heights
will be a consideration if not even.
If your flues are even with or below the crown ( the
cement top of most chimneys ) or in poor shape, a "leg kit" can be
used for proper installation.
If you are burning wood, a 5/8" spark arrestor mesh can be used, check your
local Code.
Sometimes the most economical
solution to a chimney flue downdraft, wind related puff back or chimney odor
problem is a simple chimney cap.

Chimney
Cap Measuring
for single, double & multi flue
chimney caps made easy.....
Lets climb that ladder once..... measure "everything" twice.
|
Always measure a flue side to side, never corner to
corner.
A flue may be square, rectangular, oval or round. Measure
accordingly.
Provide the inner and outer measurement to size other options such as top
sealing dampers.
If the spacing between the flues is wide enough single caps may be used
instead of double or multi flue caps.
If the flues are flush, recessed or it's just a "hole"...
measure it's opening in the crown.
|
A & B Measure
to the OUTER most edge of the chimney's top. The chimney's cement
"crown".
C & D
Measure the span or OUTER most edge of each flue or group of flues.
E Measure EVERYTHING
else...spacing between the flues, the spacing to each edge of the chimney,
etc.
H Measure the height of the flue or
highest flue in the group.

Flue Liner --
Usually a high temperature clay (fireclay). A round, square or rectangular sleeve lining the interior of
masonry chimneys. This is the pathway in which the
"smoke" or flue gases pass through to exit into the atmosphere.
(Some chimney were constructed with no clay liner or
metal pipe was used as the flue pipe.)
**Always measure a flue side to side, never corner to
corner.
Chimney Crown -- Also called a "wash"... is usually a cement topping around the flues and tapered to the
chimneys sides to shed water.
(Some crowns are tapered more than others and may create a more difficult cap
installation.)
