Hello everyone, I recently bought a house containing a Garrison Three wood stove. I wasn't familiar with wood stoves and was delighted to hear from someone that this is a terrific stove to have. I'm hoping to give the stove a whirl this winter. In the meantime I have a problem - I need to get a new chimney cap to keep small birds from flying down the flue.
It's happened several times already, so the cap that's on there now is clearly not cutting it.
I've heard that the Guardian brand cap is best for this, but am open to other recommendations. I'm also not clear on what size of a cap I should get. I understand that the Garrison Three has a six-inch flue, but I'm not sure how that translates into chimney cap size.
I'd be most grateful for any advice you all have to give me about the cap, both size and brand recommendations. Thanks very much! -Paul
