Salt air corrosion in Oxnard turns into a full liner replacement fast when a standard cap is left in place too long, since rust does not stay cosmetic this close to the coast. Paying more upfront for stainless hardware is the cheaper path once you count what a corroded liner costs to replace.
Direct Pacific exposure shortens the working life of anything that is not marine-grade, and replacing a compromised chimney system costs far more than choosing the right hardware from the start. That difference in upfront cost is what makes marine-grade components the practical choice here, not just a durability preference.
