These ensure that smoke travels up the chimney and help radiate heat into the room.

A canopy is an overhead roof structure that projects out from a building, usually to shelter an entrance. A canopy often incorporates a fabric or metal covering, to provide shade, shelter from the weather, or solely for decorative purposes.

In terms of structure, a canopy is often supported by the building it is attached to, as well as by a ground mounting provided by stanchions or upright support posts.

In classical architecture, a canopy was a projecting hood or cover that was suspended over an altar, statue or niche, and was commonly found in churches throughout the Middle Ages.

The canopy evolved during the Renaissance to become a baldachin, a fixed structure supported on pillars that was common in baroque architecture.
