Chimney Flue Cap

This Revit family provides a standard metal chimney flue cap featuring a square base and protective mesh screen for roof ventilation. The chimney flue cap consists of a square base section that transitions into a protective wire mesh enclosure, topped by a simple pyramid-shaped roof cover. The design is utilitarian, focusing on the functional requirements of flue protection against debris and precipitation. Its geometry is clean and geometric, suggesting a standard industrial or residential application. The mesh screen provides a distinct visual texture, while the solid base and roof cap provide clear, simple planes for architectural rendering. The model is presented as a single, cohesive component ready for insertion into building roof assemblies.

The download is a 2.2 MB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

As a Revit family, this component is designed for placement on roof-mounted chimney stacks or flue terminations. Users should load the family into their project and utilise the face-based or level-hosted placement options to align the cap with the top of the chimney stack. It is recommended to verify the host dimensions to ensure the base of the cap aligns with the flue opening. Visibility settings can be adjusted within the project to manage the level of detail displayed in plan and elevation views.

This flue cap is suitable for residential housing projects, small-scale industrial buildings, or any architectural design requiring detailed roof-level ventilation components. It is commonly used during the design development or construction documentation phases to enhance the accuracy of roof plans and 3D exterior visualisations. Professionals searching for roof accessories, chimney termination details, or functional ventilation hardware will find this asset useful for completing the roofscape. It pairs well with generic chimney stacks, masonry flues, and various roof cladding systems found in standard building envelopes.
