    My folks have an occasional back draft/ downdraft problem based on the direction of the wind versus a roof line on the home that is a considerable distance away from the top of the chimley.... they’ve been considering a directional cap, as well....
    Being that my 70 YO dad is as stubborn as a mule, I doubt they buy one.:whistle:
