About this asset

This cylindrical metal chimney spark arrestor Revit family provides realistic rooftop flue termination detailing with a wire mesh screen. Modelled with a compact cylindrical geometry, this chimney spark arrestor features a solid protective top cap and lower rim finished in a muted brown metal tone. Between the upper and lower banding, an integrated diamond-pattern mesh barrier wraps around the perimeter, engineered to simulate real-world ember containment and flue ventilation. The base transitions into a recessed circular mounting collar rendered in neutral grey, representing standard pipe or chase connections. Clean edges and simplified geometric components ensure efficient representation on roofscapes without unnecessary polygon overhead.

The download is a 174 KB 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.

Load the RFA component directly into your Revit project and place it on chimney stacks, chase surrounds, or prefabricated flue pipes in roof plan or 3D views. Designers can adjust level hosting or offset parameters to ensure seamless vertical alignment atop termination flashings. Assign native Revit materials to the mesh and metal body subcategories to align with exterior finishes in shaded drawings, section elevations, or photorealistic exterior renderings.

Essential for residential homes, timber cabins, and hospitality retreats equipped with wood-burning stoves or masonry fireplaces, this component completes exterior elevations with code-compliant flue terminations. It pairs naturally with masonry chimney caps, standing-seam metal roofs, asphalt shingles, and clay tile assemblies. Architectural technicians frequently search for spark arrestors, chimney cowl models, and flue caps when detailing wildfire hazard compliance or completing comprehensive building envelope documentation.
