Non-Air Cooled Chimney Cap View

Your chimney needs the right cap to prevent downdrafts and weather damage. Non-air cooled chimney caps work differently than their air-cooled counterparts. They don’t have the internal cooling channels that some specialty applications require. But for most standard chimneys,

They’re exactly what you need. The non-Air Cooled Chimney Cap View shows you all the options we carry for different flue sizes and wind conditions.

Understanding Non-air Cooled Chimney Cap Design Features

Non-air cooled caps have a simpler construction that makes them reliable and durable.

The top plate provides direct protection from rain and snow. Side panels deflect wind while allowing proper ventilation. No internal cooling chambers mean fewer places for debris to collect. These caps work great for wood stoves,

Fireplaces – and most heating appliances. We stock sizes from 6 inches up to 12 inches to fit standard flue pipes. Each size comes in both round and square configurations based on your flue type.

High Wind Non-air Cooled Chimney Cap View Options

Windy areas need caps made to handle strong gusts without lifting off. Our high wind caps have reinforced mounting systems and aerodynamic designs. Your 6 High Wind Non Air Cooled Chimney Cap works perfect for smaller flues in exposed locations. Larger flues need the 8, 10, or 12 High Wind Non Air Cooled options for proper coverage. These caps have extended skirts that create better suction and prevent backdrafts. Wind speeds up to 75 mph won’t budge these caps once they’re properly installed.

Wind Directional Non-air Cooled Chimney Cap View Benefits

Some chimneys face prevailing winds that cause consistent downdraft problems. Wind directional caps solve this by rotating to face away from the wind.

Your 8 Wind Directional Non Air Cooled Chimney Cap and 6 Wind Directional Non Air Cooled Chimney Cap handle most residential applications. Round flues need the 9in Round Non Air Cooled Wind Directional Chimney Cap or 10in Round Non Air Cooled Wind Directional Chimney Cap. These caps have ball bearing systems that allow smooth rotation. You’ll never have smoke backing up into your house again.

Non Air Cooled Single Wall Chimney Cap Applications

Single wall flue pipes need caps that provide proper clearance and ventilation. The single wall caps we carry have the right dimensions for safe operation. They maintain required distances from combustible materials. Heat doesn’t build up because air flows freely around the flue. Most wood stove installations use single wall pipe for the final section. That’s where you need a cap designed for this application. We’ve installed hundreds of these caps over the past 12 years.

Sizing Your Non-air Cooled Chimney Cap View Selection

Getting the right size cap matters more than most people realize. Too small and you’ll restrict the flue draft. Too large and wind can cause problems. Measure the outside diameter of round flues or the outside dimensions of square flues. Add 1/2 inch for proper clearance and that’s your cap size.

The 6 High Wind Non Air Cooled Chimney Cap fits 6-inch flues perfectly. Same sizing applies to the 8, 10. 12-inch models. When in doubt, bring us your measurements and we’ll recommend the right Product for your specific situation.
