The metal top on a framed chase. Builder-grade galvanized is a known failure item.
Sheet metal sloped to shed water, with sealed collars around each flue penetration. Galvanized covers fail in a predictable sequence: coating, then rust, then water at the collars, then the framing beneath. Replacement is stainless or copper, and a cover replaced after it has leaked usually comes with framing repair attached.
We work on chase cover every week across DFW. CSIA-certified, written quotes, financing available.
