Getting the chase top right in Lake Fredrica
Choosing a stainless steel chase cover
Stainless steel is the step up from galvanized for many owners. It resists rust without a coating that wears away, though grades differ in how they handle harsh exposure. Selection guidance from the International Molybdenum Association weighs factors such as sheltered horizontal surfaces and distance from salt water before recommending a grade. We explain the grade we propose for your chase top and why, and we pair it with stainless fasteners so the screws never become the weak point.
Laying out a cover for two chimney pipes
Some chases carry two chimney pipes, such as two fireplaces on different floors. Each pipe needs its own collar at its measured center, and the cover has to drain away from both. One manufacturer suggests terminations in a shared chase sit at least twenty-four inches apart center to center, at staggered heights. We measure each pipe's position on the old top and confirm the spacing before fabrication so the new openings line up with the pipes. The drainage has to work between the two collars as well, so water never pools in the space that separates them.
Covers with no drip edge
A skirt that ends in a straight cut lets water cling to its edge and run back against the siding. Over time that shows up as streaking, softened trim and eventually water behind the finish. A drip edge that kicks out at the bottom breaks that path. If your current cover lacks one, the replacement will have it, and we note any siding damage the old design has caused on your Lake Fredrica chase. On stucco, the drip edge also keeps water from soaking the top band of the finish below the cover.
Product warranties and our workmanship warranty
Metal suppliers and cap manufacturers may offer their own product warranties, and they set those terms. Our workmanship warranty covers how the cover was measured, ordered and installed. The installation record lists the parts used, so you have what you need if a product question ever comes up with a supplier. Keep that record with the fireplace manual, since a supplier may ask for the model of the chimney system as well as the cover details. If a supplier warranty applies, we tell you what it covers and what it does not, as far as the supplier states it.

Do I need to be home for the work in Lake Fredrica?
For the inspection, someone should let us look at the fireplace inside. Installation happens on the roof, so it can often be done while you are out, as long as access is arranged.
