Draft hood
Gas fired appliances must have a draft
hood to cool combustion products
entering the chimney and prevent updrafts
or downdrafts.[8][9][10]
Dual-use chimneys
Some very high chimneys are used for
carrying antennas of mobile phone
services and low power FM/TV-
transmitters. Special attention must be
paid to possible corrosion problems if
these antennas are near the exhaust of the
chimney.
