Description

If you had your home inspected and were told you needed a "Damper Clamp" or "Damper Stop" this part you need. It attaches to the damper blade in both metal box type fireplaces or brick masonry fireplaces. The Damper Stop Clamp is installed on the chimney damper blade to prevent accidental full closure of the damper while the gas log set is burning in your fireplace It is required in many areas to keep the damper from closing all the way. When a gas log set is installed they usually want it fixed in the full open position. A damper clamp is included to maintain the minimum permanent vent opening and to prevent full closure of the damper blade. The chimney damper MUST be fully opened when burning the log set. The log set is designed to burn with yellow flames; thus adequate ventilation is absolutely necessary. The damper clamp with hex bolt provides a means to prevent full closure of the damper blades. The clamp is easily attached to most damper blades with pliers or a wrench and must be permanently installed. The clamp is designed to prevent accidental closure of the damper. This clamp meets strict California building codes and exceeds the similar codes of other states.
