Manufacturers of SEAL-TIGHT and ENERGY TOP Fireplace Dampers
 

How the SEAL TIGHT
Damper works:


The SEAL TIGHT DAMPER attaches to the top of the chimney's flue tile liner.  Provides a tight, gasketed fit that seals in your heat and seals out weather, insects, birds and animals.


A slight pull on the chain releases the spring-loaded top into the open position when you're ready to burn your fireplace.


SEAL TIGHT dampers are EASY to operate! The bracket is attached to the fireplace wall, keeping the cool-touch spring handle easily accessible. A slight pull on the handle opens and closes the damper.

Seal Tight Dampers can be installed beneath a HY-C chimney cap; this provides a cover if the damper is open when it is raining or snowing; also provides screening to keep out birds and animals when the Seal Tight damper is in the open position.

SEAL TIGHT Dampers are made for use only with open burning masonry fireplace chimneys and are NOT suitable for use in these installations:

Don't use on chimneys serving vented gas logs. Vented gas logs require the fireplace damper to be removed completely or fixed to a permanently open position; this is to assure that soot, fumes and carbon monoxide do not enter your home.
Don't use on chimneys serving wood stoves or other appliances such as inserts, furnaces, etc.

INSTALLATION
SEAL TIGHT Dampers can be installed by homeowners who feel comfortable working on a roof, but U.S. Fireplace Products, Inc. strongly recommends you use the services of a qualified chimney sweep who can also inspect your chimney and provide other valuable home safety services.
