Chinmey chase
There is a chase built around my chimney in the attic. The chimney goes straight up the middle of my house. Around the chase, it is only sealed half way around the chimney with flashing, on the floor side of the chimney. Hot air is coming up from the cellar and mixing with cold air in the winter, and causing condensation. I can not reach into the chase to install more flashing to seal up, not enough space.. Can install flashing around the top of the chase and seal it?
Thanks Barry
