Default Chimney caps

...
Where can I get a good chimney cap? I have a square tile that is 11.5
inches on the outside. I purchased one from a large building store
(which shall remain nameless) and honestly can't see how this thing
could withstand a moderate wind. It was only $33, and had a set screw
at each corner that didn't like to stay straight when tightened. I
would prefer to order one from somewhere.


Hi,
I got good chimney caps from our chimney sweep guy. Our home has two
fireplaces and every other year or so we get out chimney swept...the guy put
those caps on during his first visit and they are very sturdy...so go to
your phone book and find a chimney sweep company... Jim
