Stop Your Gas Fireplace Leak With a Custom Chase Cover

Is Your Gas Fireplace Leaking? The Stove Shop can help.
Look up at the ceiling near your fireplace. Do you see faint brown water stains? Do you smell a musty, damp odor when it rains? Or worse, have you heard the dreaded drip, drip, drip inside your walls?
Here is the frustrating truth: When your home was built, the contractors likely installed a cheap, flat, galvanized steel “pan” on top of your chimney chase.
These builder-grade pans are designed to fail. They hold standing water. They rust. They crack.
And when they finally give way, the water doesn’t just drip outside. It runs straight down the inside of your chimney structure, quietly destroying your home.
By the time you see water inside your living room, you could already be looking at:
- Black mold thriving inside your drywall.
- Rotting wood framing that compromises your home’s structure.
- Rusted-out gas fireplace valves that are dangerous (and expensive to replace).
You can’t fix this with a tube of roofing caulk. You need a permanent solution.
The Permanent Fix: A Custom-Fit, “Cross-Broken” Chase Cover
Stop throwing away money on temporary patch jobs. At The Stove Shop Fireplace Experts, we don’t do “one-size-fits-all” because your chimney isn’t one-size-fits-all.
We custom-measure, fabricate, and install premium metal chase covers designed specifically for your home’s exact dimensions.
Why Our Custom Chase Covers Never Pool Water:
- Cross-Broken Design: We crease the metal diagonally (like an envelope), creating a subtle peak that forces water to run off instantly.
- Seamless Skirting: Overhanging edges act like an umbrella, shedding water away from the siding of your chimney.
- Rust-Proof Materials: Available in heavy-duty stainless steel or copper that stands up to tough Pennsylvania winters and spring downpours.
