As you can tell from my photos I was in need of a upgrade. Earlier this fall I was replacing all my fire place equipment like my shoot and my pipes. This was the finale piece I needed to upgrade my fireplace. It took me about 15 min to put it together with the wrench they give you. I easily removed my old one and slipped the new one over my existing chimney shoot. I did end up drilling out a couple holes for cement screws to attach it to the cement. Major upgrade to my old one very happy with the new one. My kids did asked how will Santa come down the Chimney now?

I wish I had this sooner since the insects, rodents and now birds coming through the chimney were of course a huge annoyance. Easy to install, is black so there is extra protection against the sun and looks great.

This is a situational review, of despair.I have needed a chimney cap for over a decade. [Getting tired of fishing out the occasional dead bird/squirrel from the bottom of the chimney.] But that is not all I need, I need to hire a mason to repoint the chimney, and replace the bricks that keep falling off, first. Trouble is, I am poor and haven't had that kind of money. I have disabilities and cannot do the work myself, unless I want to risk death (from falling). And no, I do not have any friends (who can/would do that kind of work). So, when the opportunity to finally possess a (free) chimney cap arrived (thank you, Amazon-Vine) I snatched it up...Only to realize upon its arrival that my situation is still hopeless. I couldn't even bring myself to open the box. What would be the point? So I can see this shiny, helpful device that I can do nothing with/about (not even sure it is the right size)? Instead, I moped a bit and then stuck the box in the barn, next to the attic-vent gables/louvers I picked up from the clearance rack a decade ago, and still haven't been able to install, not even sure they fit, as merely climbing a ladder that high could endanger my life.So, on top of chimney, attic-vent failures-of-remedy: there's the fact that most of my exterior doors are rotting off, the siding needs to be replaced in several areas, the roof leaks, the septic system requires significant work, my upstairs bathroom has been out of commission for a decade, the electrical is a disaster/hazard, much of my insulation is vintage 1950s (R5), foundation work has gone remiss, I am missing entire indoor walls/ceilings, there are vine-strangled fallen trees everywhere outside, there used to be a yard under all that overgrowth... You get the picture. This is what a decade+ of homeowner poverty looks like, when you make "too much" on Disability to qualify for any home-improvement programs out there, while making "too little" to hire anybody for anything. It sucks, is perpetually discouraging.Thanks for the chimney cap, I'm sure it's great, but based on how my life is going, I suspect I'll never see it in action. Five Stars: for the freebie (not the raised/dashed hopes).
