A properly built chimney is strong and solid, but even the best chimneys are prone to deterioration when exposed to the elements over time. If left unprotected, that deterioration will continue to worsen until part or all of your masonry chimney will need to be replaced. ChimGuard chimney products protect your masonry chimney from the torrent of water and snow that mother nature throws at it. Chim

As mentioned, a properly made chimney is built to withstand the destructive force of nature, but Minnesota weather can take its toll even on the toughest chimney. The constant exposure to harsh weather conditions, like wind, rain, and snow, can accelerate its deterioration. Modern brick have cores that can fill up with water. A single brick can absorb up to two cups of water. When these soaked bricks are exposed to the freezing and thawing cycles of nature, serious damage will result. ChimGuard Outside Mount Custom Chimney Caps keeps water away from the most vulnerable brick at the top of the chimney, greatly extending the life of your masonry chimney. A traditional chimney top, which is constructed of mortar or concrete, has a limited life span. An Outside Mount Chimney Cap offers much more coverage and protection. That means your chimney will virtually last forever. THINK OF AN OUTSIDE MOUNT CAP AS A ROOF FOR YOUR CHIMNEY. JUST LIKE A GREAT ROOF PROTECTS YOUR HOME, CHIMGUARD PROTECTS YOUR CHIMNEY.
