Efficient Burning Techniques The key is to burn small, hot fires, using hardwood - that will minimize creosote accumulation and maximum heat output. Keep fires burning hot with flames, not smoldering with a lot of smoke. Be careful not to add too much firewood. In a fireplace, keep the top of the flames visible below the fireplace opening. In a woodstove, keep the flames confined to the woodstove itself. With glass doors, keep the doors wide open with the screen closed for a good half hour after starting the fire. When you see the fire is burning well, close the doors and set any draft controls. It's better to add smaller loads more often than to cram in a lot of wood trying to get an all-day burn. When you're ready to put out a fire, separate the logs by moving them to the side of the fireplace or stand them on end in the back of the fireplace. Close the screen or glass doors tightly, but don't close the damper until you're sure the fire and coals are completely out. Chimney Caps The Chimney Doctor provides chimney caps, available in many popular styles and sizes. Choose the style that matches your home. We have galvanized, copper and stainless steel.

Dampers

Lock-Top Dampers

The Lock-Top Damper is America's most popular vertical action damper. Its stainless steel lid attaches to a cast aluminum framework by an array of stainless spring wires. The Lock-Top Damper mounts to the top of the flue tile with silicone sealant. It also comes with the Chimney Fire Safety Device, which locks the damper in the open position in case of a chimney fire, preventing accidental closing and possible smoke backup in the house.

Terra Cotta Style Coops

This style of coop is wonderful for multiple flues and multi-housing installations. They are made of 24-gauge paint bonded galvanized steel, painted with a terra cotta paint to simulate the old-world elegance of Victorian "Chimney Pots". Designed to fit over the existing factory-made caps of Zero Clearance fireplace chimneys, they are very simple to install and lend a classic charm to modern chimney construction.
