Oil-Fired Generator Chimney Installation
A dedicated stainless steel chimney for an oil-fired generator, routed up the exterior wall and terminated above the roofline.
Stop leaks and water intrusion at the top of your chimney. We install custom chase covers on large and multi flue chases, cut and sealed to your exact rooftop opening, so water stays out of the structure below.
OVERVIEW
The chase cover is the metal top that seals the framed chase around your chimney system and keeps water out of the structure below. On commercial and multi story buildings, a failed cover sends water into top floor units, ceilings, and interior walls, which drives repair costs far beyond the price of the cover itself. We replace failing covers with a chase cover measured to your building and sized to hold up under NYC wind and snow loads.
Every commercial chase cover installation runs through one accountable team from measurement to warranty registration. Property managers, building owners, general contractors, and mechanical contractors get engineered drawings, code documentation, and a precise field fit, with scheduling that works around occupied floors and building operations.
WHEN YOU NEED IT
Galvanized covers oxidize within a few seasons on exposed rooftops. Visible rust streaks and pitting mean the metal is thinning and no longer sealing the chase.
Staining on top floor ceilings and interior walls near the chase almost always traces back to a compromised cover. Left in place, the intrusion spreads into finishes, insulation, and framing.
A cover set flat, or one that has deflected over time, holds standing water instead of shedding it. Trapped water accelerates corrosion and pushes moisture down into the chase.
Wide commercial chases and multi flue chases need a cover cut and creased for the exact opening layout. An undersized or loose cover leaves gaps at the flues and skirt where water and debris enter.
An open or missing top leaves the entire chase and framing directly exposed to rain and snow. This calls for immediate installation before water reaches the interior.
OUR PROCESS
Our field team documents the chase, rooftop access, and flue layout, then measures length, width, opening locations, collar height, and skirt length to the nearest 1/8 inch.
We produce a shop drawing and a fixed scope proposal, typically within a 48 hour turnaround, with material gauge, finish, and lead time stated up front.
We coordinate scaffold setups and rooftop access and set a schedule that works around occupied floors and business hours to limit downtime.
We remove the failing cover, set the new chase cover on the measured opening, and seal the collars and skirt for a watertight fit on the first visit.
We verify the fit, issue post service certification, and register the lifetime warranty in your building records.
