The chimney is often the first point of failure in any roofing design. Because it stands proud of the roof it is commonly the first place to get hit by inclement weather, and because of this needs general maintenance from time to time to keep it in good working order.
There are many different types of chimney pots available, from pot caps to complete replacement pots. Some of these include:
Chimney aspirators
For chimneys that have problems with flue draw when weather conditions are bad, a chimney aspirator could be the solution. The aspirator slots on top of your existing chimney pot and the turbine head pulls the air through your chimney removing fumes created by your gas or wood burning fire.
Top hood chimney inserts
A top hood chimney insert fits inside a general chimney and provides a suitable way of capping the chimney but still providing ventilation.
UFO terminal outlets
An Ultimate Flue Outlet (UFO) can be fixed to the top of your existing chimney pot and offers excellent antidowndraught properties. The cowl can fit on most stacks and its simple adjustment method means it can be fitted really easily. The cap features a stainless steel strap and leg fixings and is suitable for use with gas boilers and gas fires.
