This page is for homeowners who installed an Olympia Chimney liner, cap, or component and need it swept, inspected, or cleared of creosote buildup without guesswork. If it’s worth burning wood in, it’s worth knowing the chimney is clear. Call (774) 310-4281 to speak with a live person and book your appointment.

How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia Chimney stainless steel liner systems (316Ti and 304 series) develop creosote adhesion patterns that differ from heavier-gauge competitors. The lighter wall thickness heats faster, which is efficient, but rapid cycling in Taunton’s freeze-thaw winters can cause glaze creosote to form in layers that standard brushes miss. We use rotary polypropylene heads sized to the exact Olympia spec, not generic stiff brushes that can scar the liner surface and void any remaining warranty coverage.
• Olympia Chimney flexible liner kits in offset flues often collect debris at the elbows, particularly in homes with 90-degree offsets common in Taunton’s 1920s capes and ranches. The corrugated design traps more particulate than smooth-wall alternatives. We pull the camera through every offset before and after sweeping, and we’ve learned to expect the heaviest buildup at the second bend, not the first.
• Olympia Chimney top-mount dampers integrated with their chimney caps seize when creosote migrates into the hinge mechanism. Homeowners notice this first as a draft that won’t shut off, or smoke spillage on mild days. We disassemble the damper assembly during sweep service, clean the pivot points with solvent appropriate to stainless hardware, and document the seal with a smoke test. Replacement with an Olympia OEM damper cap runs $340-$480 installed; a quality aftermarket alternative from Famco saves roughly $80 but uses a slightly different latching geometry.
• Olympia Chimney’s aluminum chimney caps on prefab fireplace systems corrode faster in Taunton’s coastal-influenced climate than inland Massachusetts locations. The salt load from Buzzards Bay air accelerates pitting, and pitted caps catch debris that would otherwise blow clear. We flag cap replacement during routine sweep when pitting exceeds 1/16 inch depth, and we stock Gelco and Copperfield equivalents that match Olympia’s base dimensions without the wait for factory shipping.
• Olympia Chimney’s round-to-oval adapters in terracotta-lined chimneys create a ledge where creosote accumulates above the transition point. This is invisible from below and often missed by sweeps who don’t run a camera. We’ve found buildup exceeding two inches on adapters that were supposedly swept the season before. Our fix: camera verification on every Olympia system with an adapter, mechanical removal with a whip head, and a written photo report the homeowner keeps.
