Level 1 sweep and inspection to the NFPA 211 annual standard - flue, crown, cap, and flashing checked and photographed
Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.

How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- Olympia Chimney gas fireplace inserts (ODG and ODV series): The pilot assembly on early ODG models collects condensation in Kennesaw’s humid shoulder seasons, corroding the thermopile connection and causing intermittent pilot dropout. We pull the burner tray, clean the orifice with calibrated tools, and replace the thermopile with an OEM-spec component or a tested aftermarket equivalent. We test flame signal strength in millivolts and write the reading on your report.
- Olympia Chimney wood-burning fireboxes (OWB line): Refractory panel cracking accelerates in Kennesaw’s clay-heavy soil zones where minor foundation shift is common, especially in the older colonials near Kennesaw Mountain. Hairline cracks we photograph and monitor; through-cracks or panel separation get replacement with HeatShield-compatible refractory or factory panels sourced through our network.
- Olympia Chimney top-sealing dampers (OTD series): The stainless cable housing seizes after 5-7 years of pollen and creosote buildup, leaving the damper stuck open or closed. We disassemble the housing, clean the cable run with a non-petroleum solvent that won’t degrade the seal, and replace the cable if fraying is visible under magnification. If the frame is warped from chimney fire heat, we quote a replacement before touching it.
- Olympia Chimney flexible liners (OLF series, common in fireplace conversions): The corrugated wall traps more condensation than smooth-wall DuraFlex in Kennesaw’s winter temperature swings, producing accelerated exterior corrosion at the first elbow above the smoke chamber. We camera-scan to locate the exact section, then splice in a compatible smooth-wall segment or replace the run depending on what the footage shows.
- Olympia Chimney direct-vent terminals (ODV-T models): The concentric termination collar loosens from thermal cycling, pulling the inner pipe back and recirculating exhaust into the combustion air intake. We measure the gap with a feeler gauge, reseat the collar with high-temp sealant rated for the ODV-T’s operating range, and pressure-test the seal before we leave.
Our Olympia Chimney Fireplace Services Process
- 1
Call and scope: You reach a live person, 24/7. We ask the model series if you know it, the symptoms, and the last service date. We schedule a Level 2 inspection with camera scan.
- 2
Inspection and documentation: Our tech arrives in uniform, license visible, with a text sent when they’re en route. We run the camera down the flue, photograph the firebox, damper, and any component tags. Corrine Halstead’s standing rule applies: we won’t leave you guessing what you’re looking at.
- 3
Written price before work: We write the findings, the scope, and the exact price. No verbal estimates. We write it down before we ask you to decide anything. This is Haven Standard Clause 1.
- 4
Parts decision: For Olympia Chimney units, we check OEM availability against our Haven network stock. If OEM lead time exceeds a week and an aftermarket part meets or exceeds the spec, we show you both options with the price difference.
- 5
Repair and test: We complete the work, run the unit through its full cycle, and record performance data (flame pattern, draft pressure, CO readings on gas units).
- 6
Photo record and guarantee: You receive the documented photo record under Haven Standard Clause 4, plus the written warranty. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is stamped on every job.

FAQs
No, routine service and repair by a qualified technician does not void the factory warranty on Olympia Chimney products. What voids it is unqualified work, missing documentation, or installation errors. We provide the written scope and photo record that warranty claims require. Call (678) 535-2204 if you need documentation for a pending claim.
OEM parts from Olympia Chimney typically ship within 3-5 business days for standard items like thermopiles and refractory panels. Specialty liners or discontinued series components can run 2-3 weeks. We stock common failure items through our Haven network and will show you the OEM timeline versus an available equivalent so you can choose. Call for current availability on your model.
Replace when repair costs exceed 60% of a new unit’s installed price, or when the firebox is structurally compromised beyond safe repair. We make that call with camera evidence you can see, not a sales pitch. If the liner, firebox, and venting are sound, repair usually makes sense. We’ll tell you plainly when work can safely wait and when it can’t.
Annually, per NFPA 211, even for gas units that seem to run fine. The burner orifice narrows with dust and spider webs, the thermopile degrades, and the venting accumulates debris. In Kennesaw, where pollen season runs heavy from March through May, we’ve found burner trays need more frequent cleaning than in drier climates. Skip a year and you’re gambling with incomplete combustion and elevated CO risk.
For wood-burning units, creosote builds to Class III glaze, which is ignitable and burns at temperatures that crack flue liners and damage surrounding structure. For gas units, deferred service leads to sooted fireboxes, failed safety shutoffs, and carbon monoxide intrusion. Neither outcome is theoretical. We’ve documented both in Kennesaw homes. The fix is cheaper than the aftermath. Call (678) 535-2204 for a free estimate.
