Concrete Chimney Caps | Chimney Crown Repair

​​National Building Code - Chimney Caps

9.21.4.6. Chimney Caps
1) The top of a chimney shall have a waterproof cap of
reinforced concrete, masonry or metal.

2) The cap required in Sentence (1) shall slope from the
lining and be provided with a drip not less than 25
mm from the chimney wall.
​

3) Cast in place concrete caps shall be separated from
the chimney liner by a bond break and be sealed at
that location.
Masonry Chimney Cap Construction
Chimney Cap (Drip Cap, Crown) is a cast in place or precast concrete unit, or stone unit surrounding the liner at the top of a masonry chimney designed to prevent the entry of rain and snow to the area between the masonry shell and the liner.

Chimney Relining Service

The liner is located on the inside surface of the chimney. A liner must be able to withstand the high temperatures of wood burning (650 degrees Celsius) and effectively transport the flue gasses to the exterior of the home. Because of the importance of the liner to overall chimney function and longevity, it requires several important characteristics. 

​Clay tile liners are susceptible to thermal shock.  Thermal shock occurs when the temperature of the liner rises abruptly to high levels. Such shocks can occur when a relatively cool liner is heated by a quickly kindled fire.  A chimney fire also produces severe thermal shock. The liner must be able to handle many such shocks without cracking, distorting, or displacement.
