Guide to Replacing a Chimney Cap
Just as other parts of chimney, the chimney cap may also get worn out and require replacement. The chimney cap is used to keep rodents and debris from going down the chimney. It is thus important that they are regularly checked. Worn out chimney caps may allow rain water to pass into the chimney leading to leaks and corrosion of the chimney material due to rust. Movement between the cap and chimney flue may also cause cracks to develop in the cap.

Before buying a new chimney cap to replace the old one ensure that you have the correct measurement of the cap; both exterior and interior measurements. You can then place an order with your supplier. To replace the chimney cap you may require tools such as caulk gun, screwdriver, tape measure and a utility knife.

Ensure all screws on the old cap are removed before you can remove it. You can then remove the old cap and using a chisel remove any remains on the positions of the cap. You can then fit the new cap and tighten it using the screwdriver.
