What goes into a new chase top in Clarcona
A pitched or hipped top for wider chases
Wide chases, and chases with two pipes, can outgrow simple creases. A fabricated pitch, sometimes built as a shallow hip, gives the sheet a true slope from the collar out to each side. The Majestic installation manual we work from pitches the chase top downward, away from the pipe opening, by a quarter inch per foot or more. The shape we recommend follows the size of your chase, the number of openings and the instructions for the installed system.
Fasteners that match the cover metal
A stainless cover held down with plain steel screws soon shows rust streaks at every screw head. Mixed metals in a wet joint also invite galvanic corrosion, where one metal gives itself up to protect the other. We match fastener metal to the cover and use sealing washers under the heads where the manual allows exposed fasteners. The added cost is small, and it prevents the stained look that makes a new cover appear old within a few seasons.
Brick-faced chases around a metal chimney
Some homes have a factory-built chimney inside a chase faced with brick or stone veneer. The lid over that enclosure is still a chase cover, and it still needs a collar, a slope and a drip edge. The top edge of the veneer is often uneven, so the skirt is sized to its highest points. We also check whether the top of the veneer is sealed or open, because water entering there follows a different path than water through the cover.
Steep roofs and difficult access
Steep and tile roofs take extra care to reach the chase without damaging the roof itself, and clay or concrete tiles crack under unsupported foot traffic. When your roof needs special access, we say so during the inspection, plan the approach and include any added time in the estimate, so there are no surprises on installation day. Where the roof is too steep to walk safely, the work is planned from ladders and roof brackets set for that pitch.

What is the difference between a chase cover and a chimney cap?
The chase cover is the broad metal lid over the framed enclosure. The cap is the smaller hooded part on the chimney pipe. Either can rust, and we identify which one needs work before quoting.
Which metal should a chase cover be made from?
Galvanized steel costs less, stainless steel resists rust longer, and copper is chosen mainly for its looks. We explain each option for your home and match the fasteners to the metal you pick.
