Though a chimney is a rather tough structure, it still requires protection from outside elements. Here at Legend Windows, we offer chimney cap installation to assist in keeping the rain and unwanted critters out of your home.
A chimney cap sits right above the chimney crown at the top of your chimney and serves a variety of purposes. The chimney has a duct that runs vertically, allowing smoke and chemicals to leave your home. The chimney cap helps stop precipitation from getting into the open space, which can cause internal water damage to not only your chimney but the structure of your home. In addition, chimney caps are equipped to keep sparks and burning embers inside the chimney to reduce the risk of a roof fire.
These protective coverings are designed to keep unwanted debris and critters out of your chimney, or worse, from entering your home. The dark, warm space a chimney produces is the ideal home for animals such as squirrels, birds, and raccoons. When you call Legend Windows to install a new chimney cap, we’ll not only ensure it's installed securely and properly, but we’ll check your chimney for any signs of water damage or unwanted pests.
At Legend Windows, we always place your needs above all else—ensuring your happiness throughout the entire installation process. Our installers have years of experience and are dedicated to helping you create a home you love, one window, door, gutter, and siding installation at a time.
