Water dripping into a metal fireplace

Finding water on the floor of a metal fireplace, or rust on its firebox panels? On a factory-built unit, the chimney runs up inside a framed chase, and water tends to come in from the chase cover at the top, around its collar or the storm collar on the pipe.

Rust holes and low spots on the cover come first, then our pros look at the collar and storm collar, and look inside the chase for wet framing. The fix, from resealing to a new cover, is given a written price before any work begins. Reserve a chase inspection for the wet fireplace in Yankeetown at (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Chase covers near salt water in Yankeetown

Salt settles on the flat top of a chase cover in Yankeetown and holds water there, and galvanized steel pits and rusts through quickly under it. Rust streaks on the siding below can appear within a few seasons of a new galvanized cover. Our pros recommend sloped Type 316 stainless covers here, with stainless fasteners, and they check the seams and collar for pitting on every visit.

How It Works

Four stops from measure to storm collar

Check lid and box

The cover, collar, storm collar and cap are looked over first, along with the framing beneath.
Measure and order

The chase top is measured on every side, and the cover is made with slope and collars.
Fit and fasten

Soft framing is repaired, and the new cover is set, fastened through the sides and sealed.
Seal and cap

The storm collar is sealed to the maker's instructions and the listed cap goes back on.

Covers for chases with several pipes

Two chimney pipes, or a pipe and a vent for another appliance, can share one chase. The cover needs a separate collar for each, and each termination needs room around it.

Where several terminations share a chase, the permitted separation and relative heights need checking for those systems. Their arrangement cannot be selected from another model's drawing. The replacement cover must accommodate the approved layout without obstructing required openings.

Our specialists measure every pipe's position, check the spacing and heights against the maker's guidance, and have the cover made with collars to match. If spacing is off, they'll explain the options. The spacing goes on the quote.

Cleaning rust stains off the siding

Every rain carries rust from a failing cover down the chase siding and leaves orange streaks. Once the new cover is on, the source is gone, and the stains stop growing.

Cleaning what's already there depends on the siding. Some cleans up well with a cleaner made for rust stains; some, especially older painted siding, may need repainting to look right.

A small test area comes first, so you know what to expect for your siding. Cleaning is priced separately from the cover, and painting, if needed, goes to a painter. The cleaning method is named on the quote.

Collars and caps near the coast

Salt air corrodes the storm collar, the cap and their clamps alongside the cover, and a rusted storm collar lets water down the pipe even under a new cover.

With the old cover off, our pros check the storm collar and cap for pitting and replace them with the chimney maker's listed parts where needed, sealed to the instructions.

They also look at the fasteners holding the cover and the siding trim around it, since salt works on all the metal up there, and a single rusted screw can start a new streak. Every part is priced.

FAQs

Asked about chase covers in Yankeetown

Can you fit a new cover on the same day?

Chase covers are made to measure, so the first visit measures and the second fits. If the chase is leaking now, our pros can cover the top in the meantime.

Can you clean the rust stains off my siding?

In many cases, once the new cover stops the source. Our pros test a small area first, since results depend on the siding. Talk to us about it in Yankeetown at (352) 675-6366.
