How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• OlyVent Pro direct-vent gas fireplaces: failed thermopile or worn gas valve. We see this often in Cherry Hill colonials where the unit cycles on and off for twenty winters. The thermopile drops below 325 mV and the pilot will not hold. We test with a manometer, replace the OEM SIT valve or a compatible Robertshaw only if the manifold pressure tests out of spec, and we clock the meter to confirm input rate. No guesswork - we verify flame color and CO before we leave.
• OlyWood 2000 wood-burning fireplaces: cracked refractory panels and deteriorated firebrick. The factory panels are 1.25-inch refractory cement, and they thermal-shock after repeated over-firing. Cherry Hill’s freeze-thaw cycles do not help - moisture seeps through crown cracks, accelerates panel spalling, and you get hot spots that warp the steel firebox wrapper. We source Olympia-compatible panels or pour HeatShield refractory resurfacing when the damage is surface-level, not structural.
• OlyInsert pellet and wood inserts: auger jam or combustion blower failure. The OlyInsert 1200i uses a 1 RPM auger motor that strips its nylon bushing after heavy corn-blend use. We carry the replacement gearbox assembly, and we clean the entire burn pot and heat exchanger while we are in there. The combustion blower, meanwhile, pulls flue gas through a 3-inch flex liner - if the blower seizes, the unit back-puffs smoke into the room within thirty seconds. We test amp draw on both motors and replace only what failed.
• OlyVent Pro top-sealing dampers: cable fray or cap seal degradation. The stainless cable runs through a galvanized guide tube, and after a decade of Cherry Hill humidity, the cable kinks where it exits the firebox. The cap seal itself is a silicone gasket that hardens and lets rainwater run down the flue onto the gas logs. We replace the cable with a heavier-gauge stainless line and reseat the cap with a fresh gasket - or we retrofit a Gelco cap if the original casting is pitted.
• OlyWood 2000 throat dampers: rusted-out cast iron or missing pivot pins. Original equipment on units from the 1990s and early 2000s was a 24-inch cast iron plate that corrodes where creosote condenses above the smoke shelf. In Cherry Hill’s older homes, especially near the Cooper River where the air sits heavy, we see complete plate separation. We fabricate a stainless replacement or install a Lock-Top sealing damper if the throat is too damaged to seat properly. The chimney either draws the way it should, or it does not - and we will not leave until we know which.

Our Olympia Chimney Fireplace Services Process

1. 1
   Call and schedule. A live person answers, day or night. We ask the model name, age, and symptoms. For Olympia Chimney units, we check our parts board before we confirm the appointment so we do not waste your time.
2. 2
   Level-2 camera inspection and diagnosis. Our technician arrives in uniform, background-checked, with a digital chimney camera. We photograph the flue, firebox, and damper mechanism. You see the images on a tablet while we explain what we found in plain English.
3. 3
   Parts decision: OEM or quality aftermarket. We stock common Olympia Chimney wear parts - thermopiles, gas valves, refractory panels, auger motors. For discontinued lines, we source compatible parts from Famco or Copperfield that meet or exceed OEM spec. We tell you which we are using and why.
4. 4
   Repair with upfront pricing. The estimate you approve is the invoice you pay. No add-ons discovered mid-job. Most Olympia Chimney fireplace repairs are completed in one visit.
5. 5
   Combustion test and safety verification. Gas units get a full combustion analysis - CO, O2, draft pressure. Wood units get a smoke-pencil draft test and a visual flue inspection. We document results in writing.
6. 6
   Cleanup, guarantee, and next steps. We haul away old parts. Your work is covered by our 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If we swept the chimney, we note when the next cleaning is due based on your burn habits.
