How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia Chimney Heritage Series gas fireplaces: intermittent pilot ignition failure. The SIT 820 valve assembly on Heritage units manufactured between 2015 and 2019 is prone to moisture intrusion during Olympia’s prolonged November-to-May heating season. The valve doesn’t fail catastrophically; it lights, sputters, and quits. We pull the burner tray, test millivolt output at the thermopile, and replace with an OEM SIT valve or a Robertshaw equivalent if the homeowner prefers. Corrine Halstead has documented this exact failure pattern on fourteen Heritage units in the South Capitol and Eastside neighborhoods since 2021.
• Olympia Chimney Summit wood-burning fireplaces: cracked refractory panels behind the firebrick. The Summit’s factory refractory set is thinner than comparable units from other brands, and the thermal cycling in Olympia’s maritime climate, where fires burn long and slow rather than hot and fast, causes stress fractures at the rear panel joint. We photograph the crack with the camera, measure clearances to combustibles, and install HeatShield refractory replacement panels rated to 2,100°F, or quote a full firebox rebuild if the steel wrapper has warped.
• Olympia Chimney Cascade inserts: blower motor bearing seizure after 6-8 seasons. The OEM Fasco blower on Cascade inserts runs at a single speed and accumulates dust from Olympia’s abundant Douglas fir and western red cedar, both of which produce fine particulate that bypasses the screen. We remove the blower assembly, clean the squirrel cage, and install a replacement with sealed bearings if the shaft play exceeds 1/16 inch. A variable-speed aftermarket blower from our Haven buying network cuts noise and extends service life, though we note in writing that it voids any remaining Olympia warranty.
• Olympia Chimney Pacifica outdoor fireplaces: stainless steel burner pan corrosion. The 304-grade pan on Pacifica units sold for outdoor installation holds up poorly against the salt-laden air in homes within two miles of Budd Inlet or Puget Sound. Pitting at the burner orifices causes flame rollout and sooting. We fabricate a replacement pan from 316 marine-grade stainless, source through our Famco supplier, and re-orifice for proper BTU output at Olympia’s 95-foot elevation.
• Olympia Chimney gas log sets: ember bed degradation and CO elevation. The ceramic fiber ember material on Olympia’s vented log sets breaks down after 4-5 years, compacting and restricting primary air intake. The result is a pretty yellow flame that produces elevated carbon monoxide. We test with a calibrated combustion analyzer, replace the ember bed with OEM or Gelco equivalent, and verify CO readings below 25 ppm at the register before we sign off.

Our Olympia Chimney Fireplace Services Process

1. 1
   Call and schedule. A live person answers, 24 hours a day. We ask the model name, fuel type, and symptom, then book a two-hour arrival window. You get a text when your technician is en route.
2. 2
   Camera inspection first. The camera goes in first. Everything else follows from what it finds. On gas units, we inspect the burner, pilot assembly, and vent termination. On wood units, the camera scans the flue liner, smoke chamber, and damper frame. Photos are time-stamped and saved to your job record under Haven Standard Clause 4.
3. 3
   Written diagnosis and price. We show you what the camera found, explain the repair in plain terms, and hand you a written scope with a fixed price. No work begins until you approve it. Haven Standard Clause 1: have it in writing.
4. 4
   Parts decision and repair. We stock common Olympia Chimney parts and source same-day from our Haven network for others. If an OEM part is back-ordered from Olympia’s distribution center in Auburn, we present a quality aftermarket option from DuraFlex, HeatShield, or Gelco with the warranty implications spelled out.
5. 5
   Testing and documentation. Gas units get combustion analysis and draft measurement. Wood units get a smoke-puff test and clearance verification. We print your photo record, written warranty, and 365-Day Done Right Promise card before we pack up.
6. 6
   Cleanup and follow-up. We haul away old parts, vacuum the hearth area, and schedule any recommended annual service. Your documented record lives in our archive, accessible for insurance or resale.
