The first thing you'll notice about the
Hy-C Cap is its unique corner installation feature. The slotted
hex-head mounting bolts are indented into the base to give the
cap an even, secure grip against the flue tile.
You'll also notice how the lower edges of the mesh
screen are folded inward. This gives a complete, firm base
resting on the flue tile - you won't see any critters climbing
under this cap.
The 18-ga., 3/4" mesh screen is 6 1/2" high. It has a
lifetime warranty.
Available in 6 Sizes to fit most
flues. |

Chimney Cap Measuring Tips
|
|
|
|
Masonry
Chimneys |
1)
Single Flue
Chimneys With Extended Flues - (most common) These
chimneys have flues that extend out of the chimney
allowing you to attach your chimney cap with screws that
tighten to the ceramic or clay flue. You will need to
measure the width and length of the outside dimensions
of the flue to get a proper fit. Most single flue caps
will require you to have your measurements and will fit
within a range of sizes. Depending on the length of the
screws the cap will fit a range of different flue sizes.
|
2)
Single Flue Chimneys Without Extended Flues - These
chimneys do not
extend (flush with crown or
chimney top) and
 will require you to
 use a
leg kit or
bracket
that will extend down into the flue and grip or bolt to
the sides. Leg Kits are good for easy installation and
low wind areas but will not
hold up in high wind areas, for these areas you will
want to use the more secure brackets. You will need to
measure the width and length of
the opening itself. Most single flue caps will require
you to have your measurements and fit within a
range of sizes.
Caps with screws on the outside
will still work well even though you are fitting
them to the inside opening of the
flue itself. You will need to measure the inside
dimensions of the flue opening (length and width).
Next you will match these
measurements to the range of sizes given by a specific
chimney cap and order the corresponding leg kit or
brackets.
|
3)
Multi Flue Chimneys With or Without Extended Flues
- In this application the extended flue does not
matter. With or without the flue extending you will
need to measure the total outside width and length of
the combined flues as well as how high the highest one
extends out of the chimney where applicable. You will
need to then choose a cap that will not only cover the
flue's but also fit your chimney and clear the top of
the flue's with the lid. The screen height is very
important since you are mounting this to the chimney
crown. You want at least 5" of clearance from the top
of the flue to the top of the cap to provide a proper
draft.
An example of measuring proper screen height: If your
highest flue sticks up 3" from the chimney crown, then
your screen height needs to be at least 8". This will
give you 5" of clearance between the top of the flue and
the chimney cap lid to provide proper drafting.

Round Metal Chimneys |
There are three common types of metal chimneys,
double-wall solid-pack insulated
chimney pipe and double or triple-wall air-insulated chimney
pipe. To determine which style you have is simple, take a look
down the pipe itself. If you are looking at double-wall pipe
there will be an inside pipe and an outside pipe. While looking
in between the two pipes you will see either a metal cap
blocking your view, an insulation type material, or nothing but
air. If it is capped or has insulation in it, it is solid-pack
insulated chimney pipe. If it has nothing but air it is
air-insulated chimney pipe. Triple wall pipe is almost always
air-insulated.
|
Double-Wall Solid-Pack Insulated
Chimney Pipe - First measure the diameter of the inner pipe.
Next measure the diameter of the outer pipe. The inner diameter
is the measurement used to order the cap. The outer pipe needs
to be covered to keep out rain however it does not hurt if the
outer pipe is overlapped by the cap. As long as the outer
diameter pipe is covered rain can not get in.
Example: Inner pipe measures 6" and outer pipe measures 8".
You need a 6" cap with and bottom ring that is larger than 8".
|
Double-Wall or Triple-Wall
Air-Insulated Chimney Pipe - First measure the diameter of the
inner pipe. Next measure the diameter of the outer pipe. If
you are working with triple wall you can ignore the middle
pipe. The inner diameter is the measurement used to order the
cap. The outer pipe needs to be covered to keep out rain
however it does not hurt if the outer pipe is overlapped by the
cap. As long as the outer diameter pipe is covered rain can not
get in.
Example: Inner pipe measures 6" and outer pipe measures 12
3/8". You need a 6" cap with and bottom ring that is larger
than 12 3/8". |
