 Keep heat and energy in...

Rain and animals out!

If it's not the cold dratfs on your feet, it's the high energy bill in your mail box.

   You have got a fireplace problem you probably do not know about. It is your damper. It leaks. Not a lot, but enough to be costing you over $200 a year in lost energy.

 

The lock Top Damper seals tight with a silicone rubber gasket.
       Metal to metal throt dampers were designed back when energy was cheaper, so a few leaks were no big deal. You can not say that today. A Lock Top Damper seals tight, so virtually no air, and thus no heat or air conditioning gets lost up the chimney.

     The Lock Top also eliminates downdrafts, seals out rain which can deteriorate the inside of your chimney, and prevents entry by pests like squirrels, raccoons, and nesting birds.

  • Replaces leaky throat damper.
  • Energy efficient - seals in furnace heat and air-conditioning.
  • Keeps animals out of your chimney.
  • Features the chimney fire safety device.
  • Operates easily from inside the firebox.
  • Lifetime warrenty.
  • Made from cast-alluminum and stainless steel.

The Lock Top mounts on top of your chimney.

A cable drops down your flue and attaches to a handle which mounts where you can reach it for convenient opening and closing.

See why most dampers perform poorly and cost you money.
  • Traditional dampers are located in the "throat" of a fireplace. They are made of cast-iron and are housed in a low-tech frame work.

  • Cast-iron plate and frame do not seal tightly, allowing energy dollars to escape.
  • These cast-iron dampers do not seal well—they have a leaky, rough, metal-to-metal seal.
  • Recent lab studies have shown that even a new throat damper can leak up to $200 of heating and cooling a year. Imagine how much energy an old, rusted out damper leaks!
The Lock-Top Energy-Saving Damper seals tightly to save you money

Lock-Top mounted on the top of the chimney.

 

 

  • Lock-Top's rubber gasket seals tightly like a storm door for your fireplace, and keeps heating and cooling dollars where they should be...in your home.
  • Lock-Top mounts on top of your chimney to keep out animals and rain.
  • Lock-Top easily operates from inside your firebox and seals tight everytime you close it—eliminating any draft.

Red, silicone rubber gasket under Lock-Top lid seals tightly to eliminate draft.
