Chimney Chase Cover Replacement

If you own a prefabricated fireplace, its venting system is housed within an external chimney chase structure. At the top of this structure sits the chimney chase cover, which serves as your home's first line of defense against water intrusion.

Advanced Chimney Sweep inspects, repairs, and installs chimney chase covers in the Greenville, SC area, including  Spartanburg, Greer, Mauldin, Simpsonville, Travelers Rest, Duncan, Easley, and other South Carolina communities in Greenville and Spartanburg counties.

Chase Cover Materials

Many chase tops are made from low-grade metals that are prone to rusting. The components aren’t very expensive, but repair and replacement work down the line can make them very expensive in the long run.

That's why Advanced Chimney Sweep installs stainless steel chase covers with a cross break and drip edge that can shed water away from the chimney and flashing.

The Chase Cover Protects the Whole Fireplace System

Once you have a leak the moisture can cause mold and rot inside the chase and attic of your home. Here are two key benefits of having properly installed chase cover.

1. Keeps water and debris out of the chase

Chase covers block rainwater to prevent damage to the chase system and adjacent materials of the house. In addition to damage, water can start the growth of dangerous mold that can become airborne and spread throughout your home.

2. Enhances the appearance of your chimney

Chase covers not only provide protection for your chimney, but they also significantly enhance its visual appeal.
