This all stainless steel birdguard is suitable for use with appliances fired by solid fuel or oil. It is also suitable for disused chimneys, and ventilation purposes.
All Stainless Steel
Every part of this chimney cowl, including the mesh, the straps and the fixing kit, is manufactured in 316 grade stainless steel. This is the best quality material available for chimney cowls and offers guaranteed protection against corrosion or rust.
Strong Stainless Steel Mesh
The mesh in this cowl is 12 guage (2mm), which is thicker than most chimney cowls on the market.
Powder Coated Brown
The cowl is coated in a highly protective terracotta coloured finish, giving an unobtrusive look to the installed product.
Spun Top
The lid of the cowl is spun, giving a perfectly balanced look, and increasing the strength of the product.

Fixing Method
This chimney cowl uses a strap band fixing method, considered to be the most secure method of fixing chimney cowls in the industry.
Three legs are integral to the cowl, and a stainless steel band (like a large jubilee clip) secures the cowl to the chimney pot. The bottom ends of the straps are then unturned to complete the installation.
The strap band fixings are included with this cowl.

Excellent product at at good price The “Hi Top Bonnet Birdguard” arrived very quickly, was very easy to fit securely, and has kept all the recent heavy rain out of our chimney. I am very impressed with it! (Paid £36 + VAT) (04/02/2014) -
An excellent product. Great value for money An excellent device that should give years of service keeping rain and birds at bay. The all stainless steel construction should ensure good corrosion resistance and the large lid is very effective at keeping the rain out. The price is only slightly more than the useless aluminium version. (12/03/2014) R H Dahm - Leicestershire

Knowledgeable staff Good product and advice from staff (17/09/2014) David - Wales
Excellent product and service The service we received was first class and we were very pleased with the quality of the cowl when it arrived. The builder who fitted it was equally impressed. (17/09/2014) -
A sturdy effective cowl Purchased this to replace a pre-existing cowl that was so wide it interfered with a vented 'mushroom' cap on a closely adjacent pot. It proved ideal as it is narrow, and the coolie cap higher, so it cleared the adjacent cap. It should last well and resist dislodging when chimney is swept.

Cowl / Birdguard After searching a number of websites and local roofing suppliers we ended up here. Price was the driving factor, delivery was missed but using the Royal Mail it ended up at our local Post Office so no problems. Installed it ourselves and was simple and seemed decent quality. All good. (06/11/2014) CC Jones - Kidderminster
