ABSTRACT:
A combination chimney top spark arrester and damper is provided wherein the damper is positioned within the spark arrester. The damper moves between a closed position in which it covers the top of the chimney flue and an open position in which it is raised above the top of the chimney to allow full, unobstructed flow of flue gases. An actuator includes a counterweight urging the damper into its open position. The actuator allows the user to close the damper and to apply a tensioning force to the closed damper to resist vibration and chattering. The device is quickly installed and fits several different chimney sizes.
