Chimney Cap & Cowl Fitting Enquiry Form

A cap and cowl template — problem, pot and appliance captured, so the right cowl is fitted to stop rain, birds or downdraught.

Description

A lot of chimney problems — birds nesting, rain coming down, a smoky downdraught — are solved by fitting the right thing on top. This form scopes a chimney cap and cowl fitting, so the correct cowl, bird guard or cap is fitted to the pot to stop the specific problem you’re having. It captures what a cowl job needs: the problem to solve (nesting birds, rain ingress, downdraught, disused flue), the appliance below (so the cowl suits a stove, open fire or capped flue), the number of pots, and whether access is straightforward or needs a tower or roof access. The right cowl depends entirely on the problem and the appliance, and the form pins both down. Put it on your “cowls & bird guards” page. Free, brandable, and it turns a recurring chimney problem into the right cowl, correctly fitted.

Template FAQs

Common questions about the Chimney Cap & Cowl Fitting Enquiry Form — what it captures, when to use it, and how to make it your own.

What does a cowl or cap do?

Different jobs — a bird guard keeps nests out, a rain cap keeps water out, an anti-downdraught cowl stops smoke blowing back, and a cap seals a disused flue while letting it ventilate. The form asks the problem so we fit the right one.

Which cowl do I need?

It depends on the problem and the appliance — a stove, an open fire and a capped flue all need different cowls. Tell us the issue and what’s below on the form and we’ll recommend and fit the correct type.

Will a bird guard stop nesting?

Yes — a correctly fitted bird guard stops jackdaws and other birds nesting in the pot, which is the most common cause of blockages. It’s the standard prevention after we clear a nest.

Can you cure a downdraught?

Often — a smoky downdraught, where wind pushes smoke back down the chimney, can usually be cured with an anti-downdraught cowl. We’ll assess the pot and recommend the right cowl for your situation.

How do you access the pot?

Depending on the roof — a ladder and roof access for many, a tower or access equipment for higher or steeper roofs. The form asks about access so we arrive with the right equipment to fit it safely.

Is the enquiry free?

Yes — free with a Fun Forms account, fully customizable, and it embeds on your site or shares as a link.
