Does Your Damper Need Replacing?

Do you own a fireplace? Are you struggling with airflow? Maybe you’re having some issues with the temperatures inside your home? These are all signs that of a broken or damaged damper. Your damper works to help control the draft in your home. It’s meant to provide a tight seal to ensures both the heated and cooled air in your house stay regulated. Once you’re ready to light a fire, the damper should be opened so the smoke and fumes can escape safely out of your chimney.

However, a malfunctioning damper presents a lot of challenges when trying to operate your fireplace. If your damper is showing signs of distress, then it is time to upgrade! At Chim Chimney Sweep, we are  here to help!

We Have Great Options For You

If you need a new damper, then it is time to consider replacement options. We have two great choices to choose from! Both are high-quality and will provide the top-notch results you’re looking for. Ready to save energy with a product that is easy-to-use and comes with a lifetime warranty? Then, read up on what we have to offer now!

We use the Lyemance damper. It is situated at the top of your flue and works alongside your chimney cap to keep out water, animals, and excess debris. Placing the damper at the top also decreases the chance of experiencing rust, creosote accumulation, and other damage. These models come in all black, and they offer a streamlined look, so it will barely affect the aesthetic of your chimney.

The Lock-Top damper is another option. These are very similar to the Lyemance, they are also installed at the top of your flue and provide a tight seal to ensure no air escapes your home. The main difference is in the appearance. Lock-Top dampers are low-key and do little to modify your chimney’s exterior, except they do pop up a bit higher, making them look similar to a chimney cap.

However, you can’t go wrong with either option, we’re happy to help you find the perfect fit for your set-up!
