The product's collapsible sides are connected to a solid cast aluminum lid.The device can be permanently mounted to the top of a chimney and functions as both a damper and a chimney cap. The products were sold through chimney sweeps and wood fuel appliance contractors from December 1989 to the present.Consumers who have a LockTop Fireplace Damper and Cap sets…
