The Duro-Shield 16 in. x 16 in. Aluminum Band-Around Brick Single Flue Chimney Cover is proof that you don't have to sacrifice any quality by choosing a remarkably well-priced item. Aluminum chimney caps are sturdy, lightweight, and more affordable that caps constructed out of other metals such as copper or stainless steel.

This chimney caps hood is constructed of solid 18 gauge diamond-embossed aluminum. There is a 16 gauge expanded aluminum mesh to help prevent birds and other critters from getting inside the chimney and causing costly damage. The extruded aluminum braces provide plenty of support, and the stainless steel nuts and bolts help ensure a firm, secure chimney mount.

Chimney covers are not always made alike. You want quality and performance above all. When you combine maximum function with the best price available, though, there is no better choice than the Duro-Shield 16 in. x 16 in. Aluminum Band-Around Brick Single Flue Chimney Cover.

Tom from Wisconsin asked:
Will the 16x16 work if my outside brick dimension is 15-1/2 by 15-1/2 with a round 12 Stainless steel flue?
Will the 16x16 work if my outside brick dimension is 15-1/2 by 15-1/2 with a round 12 Stainless steel flue?
This cap will fit an outer brick dimension of 15 1/2 inches x 15 1/2 inches. If the round steel flue is a chimney liner or solid pack insulated pipe, then this cap could work. If the chimney is air-cooled, this cap will not work.

Can this work for a double flu chimney as well?
Can this work for a double flu chimney as well?
This cap is only intended for use on top of a masonry chimney, though it could be used as a shroud cap above a manufactured chimney if proper clearances can be maintained.

Instructions Are Vague

the chimney cover seems to be light because of its aluminum construction. I am hoping that it will survive the weather and winds well. The instructions more visual with very vague written instructions.

only thing that came close to fitting my chimney.

Would have given it five stars, but I don't like the way the wire mesh goes together. Could have been made in one piece and folded or rolled.

Pros

Nice looking, made of aluminum, adjustable.

Cons

I don't like the four piece mesh. Could have been designed much better.
