Fitting (or removal)

Fitting or removal is simple and takes seconds, requiring no special skills. However, gaining access to pots should only be undertaken by a suitably experienced person using appropriate access equipment.

o Pots need to be in sound condition. Any cracked pot should either be replaced or suitably bound to accept lateral pressure from the retaining spring wires.

o The C-Cap is for use on redundant, disused chimneys only. Care needs to be taken that capping is not carried out to any flue that is still in use. Check it first!

o As with any capping, the flue should preferably be swept clean and any obstruction (e.g. bird’s nests) removed.

o C-Cap has been site-tested over 10 years and in severe gale conditions from Cornwall to the Orkneys.

o Tough, moulded cowl ideally suited to outdoor applications, the C-Cap fits neatly over the chimney pot where it is retained by galvanised steel spring wires.
It can be fitted to any standard round pot up to 280mm diameter and is light enough to allow several to easily be carried up the roof, where fitting to the pot takes a matter of seconds.

o Many thousands of C-Caps are fitted throughout the UK, as far north as the Orkneys, and it is the only cowl for disused chimneys that guarantees 100% protection against rain, snow, gales, birds etc. – in fact everything nature can throw at it.

o All C-Caps are supplied with an optional ‘insect screen’ to provide additional protection against nesting wasps. This can simply be fitted with the C-Cap at the discretion of you, as appropriate.

o Pots need to be in sound condition. Any cracked pot should either be replaced or suitably strapped to allow insertion of the C-Cap retaining wires.

o The unique design of the C-Cap allows continuous, permanent ventilation of the chimney, as recommended by Building Research Establishment (BRE).
