What kind of chimney cap do you have? What kind have you had and believed it hampered drafting?
My current cap, which came with the liner kit, just seems, by ground observation and stove use, to retard the draft. The one I had installed on the chimney before the liner seemed to work a lot better in allowing air to escape. This one just looks like it is containing the smoke rather than letting it escape with any speed. And alas, obvious creosote build-up. Unfortunately the previous one will not work with the new set up.
Chimney caps and draft retardation. Fallacy?
