CHIMNEY Smoke Guards

Measure the opening of your fireplace where you plan to install the guard. Choose a width that covers the area effectively, and select an adjustable length range that accommodates your specific opening size, ensuring the guard can extend to fit securely.

The included silicone adhesive is designed to provide a secure, long-term hold while being removable if necessary. However, we recommend testing a small, inconspicuous area first if you have delicate stone or tile finishes.

These guards are specifically designed for traditional open-hearth fireplaces. They are not intended for use with enclosed wood-burning stoves or fireplace inserts.

The spring-loaded mechanism provides the initial tension for positioning, but the included silicone adhesive is required for a permanent, secure installation. Do not rely on the spring tension alone to hold the guard in place during use.

The black powder-coated steel is very low maintenance and can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Brass and copper finishes may develop a natural patina over time; if you prefer to keep them shiny, you can use a standard metal polish occasionally.

By effectively narrowing the fireplace opening, these guards often improve the draft by increasing the velocity of the air moving up the flue. This helps pull smoke more efficiently into the chimney rather than letting it spill into your room.
