Your chimney’s first line of defense is right at the top. Without a proper cap or functioning damper, rain, snow, leaves, and even small animals can enter the flue—causing moisture damage, odors, and blockages. At Trumbull Chimney Pros, we specialize in chimney cap and damper installation in Trumbull, CT, using durable stainless steel and energy-efficient designs that seal tight and last for decades.
We’ve helped homeowners across Trumbull keep their chimneys dry, efficient, and pest-free, whether they have traditional brick chimneys, prefab metal flues, or wood stove inserts. Our installations are custom-fitted, corrosion-resistant, and guaranteed to perform in New England’s harsh weather.
A chimney cap is more than just a metal cover—it’s a vital component that protects your entire system. Trumbull’s frequent rain and snow mean moisture can easily enter uncovered flues, damaging liners, creating rust, and causing odors. Caps also stop nesting animals and prevent sparks from escaping your chimney.
We carry a full selection of premium caps to fit any chimney structure or style. Options include:
Traditional throat dampers, located just above the firebox, often warp or rust over time, leaving gaps that leak heat and conditioned air. Our solution? Top-sealing dampers installed at the flue top. They create a tight gasket seal, operated by a simple handle inside your fireplace, saving energy and preventing cold downdrafts.
When closed, a top-sealing damper acts like a weatherproof lid; when opened, it allows smoke to vent freely. Homeowners in Trumbull see noticeable improvements in comfort and energy bills—especially during windy, cold months.
We’ve developed a clean, safe, and efficient process that delivers lasting results without disrupting your day:
Already have a cap or damper that’s seen better days? We repair or replace damaged hardware and worn-out components. From broken damper cables to rusted screens and missing mesh, we can restore full protection and function quickly. If animals have nested inside, we safely remove debris, disinfect, and reinstall new protection.
Installing a new cap or damper is only part of chimney protection. We often recommend waterproofing the crown and masonry below to ensure rain doesn’t penetrate from hairline cracks or porous brick. Our breathable sealants prevent freeze–thaw damage, a common cause of chimney leaks across Fairfield County.
Yes. Dampers seal the flue but don’t stop rain, debris, or animals from entering. A cap provides essential weather protection and spark control.
Quality stainless caps typically last 20–30 years with minimal maintenance. They resist corrosion and withstand high winds common in Connecticut.
We strongly advise against DIY installations. Proper alignment and sealing are critical for safety, efficiency, and code compliance.
Absolutely. By sealing at the flue top, it prevents heat loss up the chimney when not in use, often reducing heating bills by up to 10–15% annually.
