How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia Chimney 316Ti flexible liners in homes near the Perkiomen Creek floodplain develop accelerated crevice corrosion at the flex-to-rigid transition where condensate pools. We see this in Collegeville split-levels built in the 1970s with exterior chimneys that never fully dry out after humid summers. Our fix: cut back to sound metal, install a DuraFlex 316Ti transition with a condensate drain tee, and document the wall thickness with caliper readings.
• Olympia Chimney rigid 304 stainless tee assemblies crack at the snout weld after 8-12 years of thermal cycling, especially when homeowners burn unseasoned oak common in Montgomery County. The symptom is smoke smell between floors, not visible draft failure. We replace with a Gelco heavy-wall tee or an Olympia equivalent, matched to the existing liner gauge, and pressure-test the joint at 12 inches water column.
• Olympia Chimney smooth-wall liners in pre-1950 Collegeville colonials along Main Street often pull away from the top plate as the original chimney settles. The gap is usually hidden by the decorative shroud. We find it with the camera looking down from the crown, then reinstall with an expanded top plate and stainless draw bands, not just more sealant.
• Olympia Chimney HeatShield-compatible liners that were parge-coated instead of fully replaced show slumping and alligator cracking in the smoke chamber. The HeatShield cerfractory mix bonds poorly to Olympia’s particular wall profile if the surface prep was rushed. We remove the failed parge, sleeve with a flexible Olympia-compatible liner, or rebuild the chamber with proper refractory if clearance allows.
• Olympia Chimney ovalized liners in factory-built fireplace retrofits ovalize further when installers skip the oval-to-round adapter and force a round termination cap. The resulting turbulence deposits Class III glazed creosote in the upper third. We pull the liner, install the correct Olympia or Famco oval termination, and run a post-sweep camera pass to prove the flue is clear.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Liner & Rebuild Process

1. 1
   Level 2 inspection with camera documentation. We run a chimney-scan camera the full length of your Olympia Chimney flue, record video of every joint and transition, and note wall thickness, deformation, and creosote class. Clause 4 of the Haven Standard requires this photo record on every job - we’ve done it since 2009.
2. 2
   Written price and scope before any work starts. Corrine Halstead reviews the footage, identifies the failure mode, and delivers a written price with line-item parts and labor. The camera doesn’t lie, and neither does the written price. You get the scope, the warranty terms, and the total - no add-ons after we’re in your home.
3. 3
   Parts decision: OEM Olympia or quality aftermarket. We source Olympia Chimney components through our Haven buying network when they’re the right fit, or specify DuraFlex, HeatShield, Gelco, or Famco when those materials solve the problem more durably. We tell you which we’re using and why.
4. 4
   Liner replacement or rebuild execution. For liner jobs, we pull the old Olympia liner, inspect the surrounding masonry, install the new system with proper clearances and supports, and seal the top plate. For rebuilds, we stage materials, rebuild from the roofline or shoulder up, and integrate the new liner with the restored structure.
5. 5
   Pressure test or smoke test, then final camera pass. Flexible liners get a 12-inch water column pressure test; rigid systems get a smoke pellet test. We then camera the finished flue, burn a test fire where possible, and deliver your documented photo record and written warranty.
6. 6
   Cleanup and 365-Day Done Right Promise activation. We haul away debris, run a HEPA vac on the work path, and stamp your warranty under the Haven Standard. If it’s not done right, we make it right.
