How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia Chimney Gelco-style multi-flue caps with galvanized steel frames develop rust-through at the welded corners faster than stainless units, especially where Littleton’s freeze-thaw cycles let snow sit on the lid for days. We replace with 304 or 316 stainless equivalents, or source direct through Olympia’s buying network when the homeowner wants to keep OEM continuity.
• Olympia Chimney’s factory chase covers on factory-built fireplaces - particularly the pre-2018 galvanized units - pond water at the center seam where the flue pipe exits. The seam sealant cracks, water runs the chase interior, and we find rotted framing or rusted firebox collars on camera. We fabricate a custom replacement chase cover with cross-breaks to shed water, or install a Gelco or Famco stainless unit with proper diverter geometry.
• Crown wash failure on masonry chimneys fitted with Olympia Chimney liner systems happens when the crown cracks and water follows the liner top down into the smoke chamber. The Olympia liner itself is fine; the crown is the entry point. We grind back to sound concrete, re-pour with proper overhang and drip edge, then seal with CrownSeal or a compatible flexible coating that won’t delaminate from thermal movement.
• Olympia Chimney’s round stainless caps with mesh sides clog with cottonwood seed in late spring across the Littleton area, particularly near the South Platte River corridor. The restriction shows up as draft failure or smoke backup. We clean the mesh in place when possible, or upsize to a cap with larger mesh spacing if the fireplace is oversized for the flue.
• Spalling concrete crowns on 1970s-1990s Littleton homes in Columbine Knolls and Ken Caryl often hide an Olympia Chimney liner that was retrofitted later. The crown damage lets water hit the liner top plate, and the plate rusts into the flue. We document the plate condition with the camera before touching the crown, because a cap job becomes a liner top replacement fast if corrosion has set in.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Cap & Crown Process

1. 1
   Call and schedule. A live person answers. We book a Level 2 inspection with camera scan, same visit as the repair when possible.
2. 2
   Camera down the flue. Corrine or one of our techs runs the chimney cam to the liner top, smoke chamber, and firebox. The camera doesn’t have an opinion - it just shows you what’s there. We find water damage, liner corrosion, or creosote buildup that would make a cap-only job pointless.
3. 3
   Written price, written scope. Before any work starts, you get a flat price for the cap or crown work, plus any flue or liner repair if we found it. Clause 1 of the Haven Standard requires it in writing. No surprises.
4. 4
   Parts decision. For Olympia Chimney systems, we match OEM specs when available through our buying network, or specify quality aftermarket from Gelco, Famco, or Copperfield if lead times or pricing favor it. We explain the trade-off and let you choose.
5. 5
   Repair and test. Crown work gets a proper cure time or heat-cure per product spec. Cap installs include a draft check and visual confirmation of mesh clearance. We run the camera again if the flue was opened.
6. 6
   Photo record and warranty. You get dated photos, a written warranty, and our 365-Day Done Right Promise. Clause 4 of the Haven Standard requires the documented record - we’ve done this on every job since 2009.
