Instructions
These instructions are for the fitting push-on tops into
existing pots.
The sketch shows the push-on top fitted to an existing pot
as a typical example. If a new pot is being installed with
push-on top, refer to the separate fitting instructions for the
particular pot.
Inspect the existing chimney pot and the new push-on top
and confirm they are undamaged.
Ensure the push-on top is suitable for use with the existing
chimney pot, flue system and the type of fire installed.
Using a sand/cement ratio of 3:1, apply a bead of mortar
around the top face rim of the chimney pot and fit the
push-on top in place. Align the push-on top with the
chimney pot and/or the chimney stack and ensure it is
vertical. Any exposed mortar at the joint should be
smoothed and angled downwards to allow rain to run away.
