Stainless-Steel Covers
Chimney covers are extremely important in protecting your chimney from water damage, mold and animal entry. At Ash Chimney Sweeps, we only install top-quality stainless-steel chimney covers that we manufacture in house or purchase from a local Ontario manufacturer.
​Why You Need a Chimney Cover?
A properly installed chimney cover helps to:
-
Prevent rain and moisture from entering the chimney.
-
Stop animals such as birds and squirrels from nesting inside.
-
Reduce debris buildup that can block airflow.
-
Improve energy efficiency by limiting unwanted drafts.
-
Protect your chimney from long-term deterioration.
Without a quality cover, moisture and animals can cause costly damage over time.
Custom-Made Stainless-Steel Covers
Historically, chimney covers were made by a tinsmith. As that trade becomes rare, Ash Chimney Sweeps is proud to continue the craft. Using the original tools and dies from a retiring tinsmith, we will soon be manufacturing custom chimney covers in-house.
This allows us to offer custom-made chimney covers by Ash Chimney Sweeps, designed specifically for your chimney for the best fit, durability, and performance.
All of our covers are:
-
100% stainless steel.
-
Rust-resistant and long-lasting.
-
Custom-sized for your chimney.
-
Professionally installed.
Types of Chimney Covers We Install
Masonry Chimney Covers
Masonry chimney covers serve as a barrier, preventing rain, animals, and sparks from entering or exiting the chimney.
Many covers on the market are made from low-grade materials that rust and fail over time. Our patented stainless-steel covers will not rust or deteriorate, helping keep your chimney and home protected.
Close-Off Covers
When a chimney flue is no longer in use, a stainless-steel close-off cover can be installed. This prevents rain and animals from entering while still allowing necessary air exchange to maintain chimney health. These covers are custom-sized, 100% stainless steel, and guaranteed while you own your home.
Energy-Efficient Chimney Covers
Energy-efficient chimney covers are designed to stop airflow through a masonry chimney when it is not in use, preventing cold downdrafts. These covers operate with a cable system that opens fully when a fire is lit and closes tightly when not in use. They are ideal for homes experiencing cold drafts and can help reduce heating costs. They also restore proper damper function when a damper has been removed for a gas or wood appliance.
Gas and Wood Liner Covers
Gas and wood liners require different types of covers to function properly. Many existing installations use aluminum covers that rust quickly. We install stainless-steel liner covers selected specifically for your appliance and liner size, guaranteed against rust and animal entry.
Professionally Installed, Built to Last
Every chimney cover we install is carefully selected, custom-fit, and professionally installed to ensure long-term performance and protection.
