In the past, I have written articles or blogs here at Active Rain about the benefits of chimney caps on chimneys. In my wet climate, they are pretty much essential for keeping the rain out. On my trip a couple months back, to Italy, I could not resist but to take photos of some of the chimney caps they have over there. They are pasted in above so take a look. I think they are interesting and, when compared to what we have over here at least, unique. These are old tile roofs and a number of the caps, that do the job of keeping the water out below, are pretty neat ore ven classy looking. They do a good job of matching the overall look or aesthetics of the old tile roofs.
Thanks for taking a look.
