How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia Chimney 316Ti stainless liners and salt-air corrosion. The 316Ti alloy resists most creosote acids, but in Smithtown homes within two miles of the Nissequogue River or Long Island Sound, the chloride-rich air can pit the liner’s lower sections where condensation collects. We cut back to sound metal, sleeve with DuraFlex 316Ti or upgrade to a higher-grade alloy where the environment demands it, then reseal the connection with HeatShield Cerfractory foam at the smoke chamber.
• Olympia Chimney Gelco cap mesh sagging after heavy snow loads. The standard 3/4-inch mesh on older Gelco caps flattens under wet Suffolk County snow, blocking draft and trapping moisture against the crown. We replace with reinforced Gelco 5/8-inch mesh or upgrade to a custom copper cap from Copperfield for homes in Smithtown’s historic district where aesthetics matter as much as function.
• Olympia Chimney Pro-Form crown cracks from freeze-thaw cycling. The Pro-Form preformed crowns work well until water finds the seam between crown and flue tile, then Smithtown’s 20 to 30 annual freeze-thaw cycles lever the crown apart. We remove the compromised section, pour a new concrete crown with proper drip edge and bond break, or apply HeatShield CrownCoat where the substrate is sound enough to save.
• Olympia Chimney Famco damper hardware seizing in coastal humidity. The cast-iron throat dampers Famco supplied for many Olympia Chimney systems in the 1990s and 2000s rust solid if the chimney lacks a rain cap. We free or replace the mechanism, then always pair the repair with a proper cap because a working damper without protection is a temporary fix.
• Olympia Chimney surround panels pulling away from manufactured fireplaces. The metal surround panels on certain Olympia Chimney zero-clearance units expand and contract at a different rate than the framing, opening gaps that leak conditioned air and combustion byproducts. We re-secure with proper clearances, seal with high-temp silicone, and verify with a smoke pencil that the envelope is tight.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Repair Process

1. 1
   Call and schedule. A live person answers, asks what you’re seeing, and books a Level-2 camera inspection. No phone trees, no callbacks tomorrow.
2. 2
   Inspection with documentation. Our technician runs a camera the full flue length, photographs crown, flashing, and exterior masonry, then explains the findings in plain English. Russell’s approach: “Tell me what you see, and I will tell you what it means.”
3. 3
   Parts decision. We source OEM Olympia Chimney components when available and cost-appropriate, or specify professional-grade equivalents from DuraFlex, HeatShield, or Gelco that meet or exceed original specifications. We never use builder-grade substitutes.
4. 4
   Repair execution. Background-checked, uniformed technicians complete most Olympia Chimney repairs in a single visit. The work area is protected, debris is contained, and we match mortar color on exposed repointing.
5. 5
   Testing and verification. We run the camera again, check draft with a manometer, and verify all clearances. You see the before-and-after photos.
6. 6
   Written guarantee. Every Olympia Chimney repair is covered by our 90-Day Done Right Promise, in writing, with no arguing. If it’s not right, we come back.
