Measuring Instructions for Custom Fit
The unique flange system is built to accommodate aged or irregularly shaped clay pots, but accurate measurement is crucial for proper fit.
-
Find the I.D.: Measure the inner diameter (I.D.) of your chimney pot opening.
-
Ensure Accuracy: Since pot openings can vary, take measurements in several spots and calculate the average size.
-
Specify Your Order: When placing your order, first select the pricing category that encompasses your average I.D. measurement. Then, enter your specific inner diameter (I.D.) into the designated customization field.
Custom Craftsmanship: These Pot Toppers are custom-made precisely according to the Inner Diameter measurement you provide. For this reason, all custom caps are non-returnable. Please feel free to reach out to our team with any measurement questions before finalizing your order.
Installation: Seamless Integration
This cap is designed for rapid, do-it-yourself installation:
-
Apply the included construction adhesive to the inner edge of the clay chimney pot opening.
-
Set the cap into the opening, allowing the 1.5" vertical flange to slip inside.
-
Press down firmly until the 1" horizontal flange rests completely flush on the top rim of the clay pot. The adhesive will then bond the cap securely in place.
