MEMBERSHIP
The longitudinal rotary cap is mounted on top of the chimney using a base or directly on the pipe - chimney liner. In both cases, the cowl should be located under the peak of the roof. Make sure that the cowl is not covered on either side by a wall or other flue pipe. If the distance between flue pipes is small, it is recommended to install longitudinal rotary cowls.Mounting the cowl through the base
Mark the location of the holes for the mounting pins on the top of the chimney, drill the holes and place the pins in them. Then screw on the base of the rotary cowl, gluing the attached gaskets in advance. If necessary, the top of the chimney can be leveled with sealing compound beforehand. After making sure that the entire structure is stable, put on the cowl and tighten it to the base with the side nuts . Properly installed, the cowl should rotate freely without making any sound.Mounting the cowl directly on the pipe - chimney liner
It should be fixed with the help of side nuts, after first cutting longitudinal holes in the pipe.NOTE: It is worth remembering that in any case, to ensure safety, the installation of cowls should be entrusted to specialized professionals!
Maintenance
Rotary cowls, like all technical devices, require maintenance. The inspection is best performed once a year. It is worth combining it with the annual inspection of chimney and ventilation ducts performed by chimney sweeping companies. To perform the inspection, the top (rotary) part of the cowl should be removed, by unscrewing the side nuts. Easy access to the flue will allow you to inspect it, and the disassembled cowl can be cleaned ( detergent + running water). After drying and removing defects, if any, put the cowl back on the base and carefully tighten the side nuts.WARRANTY
