Solutions for Chimney Drafting Problems

Most of the time your chimney drafting problems can be solved by simply raising the chimney higher into
the wind. Sometimes it is impossible or way to costly to have a mason come out and add a few feet onto
your chimney. The best solution is to use a flue stretcher or a chimney pot. Example of a chimney that
needs to be raised.
