Wow!!! I found it at Volko...... and they made it easy to order.
The multi cap is what it is, a great thing. This
cap can be used for anything from a single flue to a bunch of flues
either misaligned, broken, different heights, rounds mixed with
squares, (you get the idea) and is easy to install.
Measuring is good, and be aware of the flue heights for proper draft.
Standard mesh height is 10" for
these caps.
If a single flue or any flue within a group is 5" high or more, a taller
mesh custom cap may be required.
Installation will require some drilling. This cap has a flange that
will be mechanically fastened via lags and screws to the top of the
crown. A good feature of this cap is that the top is removable by 4
bolts that will allow access for chimney cleaning.

529 different sizes!!! Which size do I
choose?????
Since these caps attach to the
crown we like to recommend a size where the
mesh of the cap is
half way between the
flues and the
edge of
the chimney. Larger may be better.
Try to keep the mesh at least 3-4 inches in from
the edge as the flange adds 1 1/4" (all around) to the "foot print" of
the mesh. Don't worry about the lid of the chimney cap... it is not
recommended that it overhangs the chimney. Click to see job

Chimney Cap Measuring for single, double & multi flue chimney caps made easy..... Lets climb that ladder once.....
measure "everything" twice.
Always measure a flue side to side,
never corner to corner.
A flue may
be square, rectangular, oval or round. Measure accordingly.
Provide the inner and outer measurement to size
other options such as top sealing dampers.
If the spacing between the flues is wide enough single caps may be used instead of double or
multi flue caps.
If the flues are flush, recessed or it's just a
"hole"... measure it's opening in the crown.
A & B Measure to the
OUTER most edge of the chimney's top.
The chimney's cement "crown".
C & D
Measure the span or OUTER most edge of each flue or group of flues.
E Measure
EVERYTHING
else...spacing between the flues, the spacing to each edge
of the chimney, etc.
H
Measure the height of the flue or highest flue in the group.
Flue
Liner -- Usually a high temperature clay (fireclay). A round, square
or rectangular sleeve lining the interior of masonry chimneys. This is the
pathway in which the "smoke" or flue gases pass through to exit into the
atmosphere.
(Some chimney were constructed with no clay liner or metal pipe was used as the
flue pipe.)
**Always measure a flue side to side, never corner to
corner.
Chimney Crown -- Also called
a "wash"... is usually a cement topping around the flues and tapered to the
chimneys sides to shed water.
(Some crowns are tapered more than others and may create a more difficult cap
installation.)
