Step-by-Step Installation Process

Step 1: Safety Preparation and Assessment Begin installation by establishing safe roof access using appropriate ladder systems and safety equipment. Assess chimney condition and surrounding roof areas to identify potential hazards or structural concerns that might affect installation procedures. Document existing conditions through photographs for reference during the installation process.

Step 2: Precise Measurement and Sizing Measure flue tile dimensions at multiple points to account for irregularities in construction or settling. Record both length and width measurements, noting any variations that might affect cap selection. Consider seasonal expansion factors that can influence fit tolerances in extreme temperature conditions.

Step 3: Hardware Preparation and Positioning Organize mounting hardware according to manufacturer specifications, ensuring all components are present and properly rated for your specific installation requirements. Position the cap assembly carefully to achieve proper overhang while maintaining centered alignment over the flue opening.

Step 4: Secure Mounting and Adjustment Tighten mounting bolts gradually in a cross-pattern to ensure even pressure distribution across the flue tile surface. Avoid over-tightening that might crack terracotta materials while ensuring adequate clamping force for wind resistance. Check final positioning to verify proper overhang and alignment.

Step 5: Final Inspection and Testing Conduct comprehensive inspection of completed installation, checking all mounting points, screen integrity, and overall stability. Test cap security by applying gentle pressure in multiple directions. Document installation date and specifications for future maintenance reference.
