Haha we have the same break at our shop. I love using the manual over the hydrolic anyway. Nice clean work you guys, love the video and choice of tune.
Nate Suhl yes we actually use silicone on the collar but is should be one that can withstand high temperature and tomorrow I’ll check the name of the tool and let you know
Thanks again, I work at a sheetmetal shop and we quoted a guy on some of these chase covers, for 24ga. Stainless. Our spot welder is down right now, u think a tac weld would do instead of spot weld? Or TIG. I know it would be easy to blow a hole right through it, as thin as it is
Won't the sealant deteriorate like a year or 2 from exposure to direct sunlight. I think they should make like a rubber boot to slide over the pipe the that acts as a umbrella and covers the sealant as well as keeping water out.
I had my cap replaced and they used 26 guage galvanized which I understand is thinner than recommended. I live in hot humid rainy South Florida, so I expect this may rust through after only a few years. Has anyone here ever painted one to make it last longer in hot climate? I'm considering it but thinking the very hot temperatures on metal might make the paint peel and bubble making things worse. Any advice would be appreciated.
You would have to clean it first because galvanized metal is shipped with an oil like substance. You can use vinegar to clean it. Also you will need to use a paint that is for metal. Not oil based paint.
@@roofertwins4521 Thank you for the response. My concern is that vinegar removes galvanized zinc. I'm considering painting purely to improve it's useful life (rather than for aesthetics), so wouldn't I be weakening it's resistance so that I can then strengthen it again with paint, which seems like would defeat the purpose a little?
Our galvanized 63x33 chase cover lasted 28 years before it was blown off during a derecho (fast-rolling cluster of severe thunderstorms that can whip up tornadoes and heavy rains). Never rusted, never stained the siding. Betcha can't guess what we replaced it with...
@@roofertwins4521 I’ve replaced 1000s of these all with stainless. Galvanized will rot out again the material cost is slightly more for a huge upgrade.
What is the base part specifically called/ named? If I already have the part that's on top of the stack, isn't that the cap? So what is the base called? I need the base part, not the cap.
If you go to around 11:00 in the video you can see the machine I used to make it. I usually go an inch bigger for the center circle so I’d do 13” and then add 3” for the colar so the outside circle will be 19” to make up for both sides
I've done It Old skool for 30 years.. cut the flue hole on the job slightly smaller than the flue then swoop up the edge with a hammer and slide it on.. connection is so tight that collar is redundant although I still will make one ..
That music sucks balls. I'm a fabricator, I would never listen to that while working. Dude is wearing Chilli Peppers, play some of that, take that crap off there, that is unbearable

Great work and I now know why these things cost so much
these guys have skills lol and damn good machines
I'm in Canada, where did you get the spot welder and how much? May I ask what you sell the larger cap for? Cheers.
I use to charge less but if I was doing that size now it would probably be around 350 US
You are obviously well skilled, and have excellent equipment. Please wear safety glasses. I am concerned for you.

What is the name of the soldering set up you guys use? Great videos!
Does the outer wall of a double-wall (air gap) flue have to be vented (by cutting it a little short) or can it fit tight to the underside of the cap?
Do you guys do custom caps for people out of state?
What was that spinning tool u guys used to cut those circles out? And is it ok to use silicone instead of solder? Great video by the way

Hi
the sealants made these days would be ok after installing the cap but soldering is used in the shop
Won't the sealant deteriorate like a year or 2 from exposure to direct sunlight. I think they should make like a rubber boot to slide over the pipe the that acts as a umbrella and covers the sealant as well as keeping water out.
do you have a website or contact info? how do you tie the caps to the brick chimney? Also, you didn't keep a drip edge. Any reason?
No drip edge because they didn't have the tools for that, I assume.

What kind, brand, sealant that you used on the collar?
Before we would use the NP1 brand but we now use titebond metal roof sealant
Where are you guys located? I can't find it in your info
How long does the metal hold up to the elements?
Not nearly as good as stainless steel would have.
is it ok to use galvanize as chimney? is galvanize sheet not releasing toxic substance when heated?
Almost all chimney caps are made with galvanized metal. The pipe that goes through the cap all the way down to the fireplace is also galvanized

How can l get one of those Done for my House, l’m in Spring Texas.
Cmon guys ... nice work but use stainless steel .
Nobody wants to pay for stainless though. It’s too expensive for a chimney cap.
We’ve lane a few copper ones in the past. Hopefully we can get one to put on the channel
Is the material cost for stainless actually that much higher? The bulk of the price for these covers is going to labor, isn't it.?

Are you talking about the 'chase'?
It is known as a 'Chase Pan'.
Can you show how to cut and make a storm collar for a 12" pipe?
If you go to around 11:00 in the video you can see the machine I used to make it. I usually go an inch bigger for the center circle so I’d do 13” and then add 3” for the colar so the outside circle will be 19” to make up for both sides
Thanks for pointing that out. I didn’t see it installed later in the video so it didn’t register that it was a storm collar.
@@robertvanderbailes1295 yeah I just cut it on one side and then tighten it around the pipe and use some screws
I've done It Old skool for 30 years.. cut the flue hole on the job slightly smaller than the flue then swoop up the edge with a hammer and slide it on.. connection is so tight that collar is redundant although I still will make one ..
Are you able to quote a price on a single hole chase cap for me ??? If so I can get you the measurements
Where are you located? Is it brick or siding? Does it have a pipe? If so what’s the size of the pipe?
#amaturehour very sloppy solder
STOP WITH TGE ANNOYING NOISE -MUSIC
Seriously, my boss who runs our warehouse couldn't even watch it all. You will get more completed views without that shit. Who picked that garbage?
John Brooks 😂 this is too funny. Just mute it or something
That music sucks balls. I'm a fabricator, I would never listen to that while working. Dude is wearing Chilli Peppers, play some of that, take that crap off there, that is unbearable
John Brooks you do know what copyright is don’t you?
