How Olympia Chimney Products Fail – and How We Fix Them

Olympia Chimney builds solid fireplaces, but every product line has its habits. After years of servicing these units across Alpharetta, here’s what we see most often and what we do about it.

• Ventis gas fireplace pilot light dropout. The Ventis line runs a millivolt pilot assembly that gets finicky as thermopile voltage drops. We test the thermopile output before replacing anything. If it’s below 250 millivolts under load, we swap in a new OEM-spec pilot assembly rather than just cleaning the old one, which tends to fail again within a season.
• Olympia wood-burning firebox refractory panel cracking. The refractory panels in Olympia’s masonry-style fireboxes absorb heat and moisture over time. In Alpharetta’s humid summers, that moisture expands and contracts, leading to hairline cracks that eventually open up. We replace these with factory-dimension panels and seal the joints properly so the crack doesn’t just migrate.
• Damper warping on older Olympia steel fireplaces. We see this a lot in Windward homes near Lake Windward where fireplaces were built in the 1990s and used heavily. The damper plate and frame warp from cycling heat, and then the damper won’t seat fully. That kills your draft and sends a faint smoke smell into the room. We straighten or replace the damper assembly, and we check the linkage so it actually closes tight when you’re done burning.
• Gas log set and burner issues on Olympia’s gas inserts. The ceramic fiber logs in many Olympia gas inserts develop surface cracking from repeated heating. What looks like a failure is often just cosmetic, and we’ll tell you that honestly. The real issue is usually the burner ports clogging with dust and pet hair, which we clean methodically at low pressure so we don’t damage the ports.
• Chase cover rust-through on Olympia prefab installations. This is the Alpharetta climate reality: the galvanized chase covers on exterior Olympia chimney chases slowly rust from the top down. Once water gets in, it drips onto the firebox and accelerates every other problem. We fabricate replacement covers in stainless steel so you don’t replace a galvanized part with another galvanized part that rusts again.

Our Olympia Chimney Fireplace Repair Process

Here’s exactly what happens when you call us for Olympia Chimney fireplace repair in Alpharetta, from the first phone call to the clean-up photo.

1. 1
   You call (762) 225-2593. A live person answers, every time. No voicemail tree. You tell us what the fireplace is doing, and we schedule a visit that works for your family.
2. 2
   We arrive and protect your home first. Shoe covers go on at the door, drop cloths go down around the hearth, and we ask before moving anything. This is the Cedarwell Care Promise and it’s not optional for our crew.
3. 3
   We diagnose the Olympia unit properly. We don’t guess. We test the gas pressure, pilot assembly, thermopile, damper function, and firebox condition. You’ll know what’s wrong before we touch a tool.
4. 4
   You get a written price before work starts. No on-the-spot pressure. We show you what we found, what we recommend, and exactly what it costs. You decide.
5. 5
   We repair using the right parts. OEM Olympia parts where it matters for safety and fit. Quality aftermarket parts from trusted brands where OEM isn’t available or the cost doesn’t justify it. We explain which we’re using and why.
6. 6
   We test, we show you, we clean up. We run the fireplace through a full cycle before we pack up. Then we take a photo of the clean-up and walk you through everything we did. The 365-Day Done Right Promise means if it’s not right, we make it right.
