With over 25 years of experience, Chimney King can offer you more than just a custom UL Listed & Labeled chimney cap. All of our chimney caps are built to last with high-quality materials, a 10-year warranty and peace of mind. There are plenty of imitators around that will offer to make a similar design for less... if you want a chimney cap that is made with a cheaper material, with little or no warranty, and most likely... not tested for safety.

Fireplace companies spend huge amounts of money on testing to ensure that each piece of the fireplace system - from the firebox itself to the termination cap above your chimney chase - all work together efficiently and safely. This testing is a long and costly process, but is essential to ensure the safety of the public. At Chimney King, we work hard to make sure our products undergo this testing in order to provide the best - and safest - chimney cap available on the market today.

Because our chimney caps are UL Listed & Labeled, you have met the requirements for the 2000 International Codes – Mechanical - Residential - Fire - Fuel & Gas, as well as NFPA 211 and NFPA 54 for chimney shroud use. This keeps the UL Listing and factory warranty on your factory built (pre-fab) fireplace intact as well as your homes insurance policy!

The usage of these terms is interchangeable. Generally builders refer to them as shrouds, but they all mean the same thing: a decorative and functional top to a chimney.

This part can be tough, but the more you know the more Chimney King is able to assist you.

1. Fireplace manufacturer, fireplace name and model number, pipe model number, and termination cap model and number.
2. Chase top dimensions, height of pipe/s, number of pipes, type of pipe/s, and the ID of the pipe/s. (the chase pan layout)
3. Order Form completed as best as you can.

With that information, we can get down to the details on your personalized custom chimney cap. We love to receive emails with pictures of your home and chimney, elevation sketches, blueprints, and CAD drawings.

All of our chimney caps are made from at least 24 GA steel. We offer mill-finished aluminized steel, 92 colors of painted steel, stainless steel, 16oz & 20oz copper, lead-coated copper, patina'd (green) copper, and 'perfect' non-tarnishing copper. For those of you who prefer the look of stucco, we offer a "ready for stucco" option as well as our custom elastomeric stucco-paint finish (available in various colors).

Orders of less than five (5) chimney shrouds usually leave our shop within five to ten (5 - 10) business days. Ship times to your location vary but are generally less than four (4) days within the continental United States.

1. We can send the chimney caps to you fully assembled via a selected freight carrier.
2. We can leave them in pre-assembly form (disassembled) and shipped via UPS (Important! Not all chimney caps will be small enough to ship this way).

5. Corrosion damage: Certain geographic areas of the world are prone to excessive corrosion and Chimney Crowns must be ordered to withstand these corrosive effects for the Ten Year Replacement Warranty to be in effect. These include:

• Ocean / salt air is a corrosive element that requires a stainless steel subframe to be used in order to preserve the ten year guarantee and keep it in effect.
• Emissions from certain chimney flues - Oil and Coal fired boilers in specific and other types of mechanical boilers, furnaces or discharge sources - can be corrosive to standard mill finish Galvanized and Aluminized Steel as well as primed Galvanized and Aluminized Steel sheet metal. Stainless Steel must be substituted as a sub-frame material in order for our ten year replacement guarantee to stay intact.
• Certain geographic areas of the US and Canada depend on coal fired power plants which produce excessive acid rain. In these areas a stainless steel subframe is also necessary to preserve our warranty as stated above.
• Should an unforeseen corrosion problem not stated above arise, please contact customer service and we will work to satisfy you on a per case basis.
