This page is for Northport homeowners who already own an Olympia Chimney fireplace, insert, or venting system and need service, repair, or conversion work done by someone who understands the product without the runaround.

How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia Chimney vented gas fireplaces with sluggish ignition or yellow-tipped flames. We see this often in Northport’s older split-levels near Laurel Hill Road, where the original Olympia direct-vent units were installed in the 2000s. The issue is rarely the burner itself; it’s corrosion at the vent termination cap from salt air off Northport Harbor degrading the seal. We replace with OEM-spec Olympia gaskets or, when supply is tight, a marine-grade Famco equivalent that holds up better on this coastline. The fix includes a combustion analysis to confirm safe CO levels before we leave.
• Olympia Chimney wood-burning fireplace inserts with cracked refractory panels. The OC-42 and OC-50 series inserts were popular in Northport’s 1970s colonials for good reason, but the refractory panels take a beating from thermal cycling. A hairline crack in month one becomes a through-crack by month six. We source Olympia-spec panels or fit HeatShield refractory restoration when the panel channel is still true, saving the cost of full replacement when appropriate.
• Olympia Chimney top-sealing dampers that won’t open fully or seal tight. The Olympia Lock-Top damper is a smart design, but the stainless cable can bind where it passes through the smoke shelf, especially in chimneys with heavy creosote glaze. We don’t just lube and hope; we run a Level-2 camera to find the bind point, then replace the cable assembly or switch to a Gelco cap-mount damper if the throat is too deteriorated for a reliable seal.
• Olympia Chimney gas-to-wood conversion candidates with incompatible venting. Homeowners in Eatons Neck and Asharoken ask about this every fall. Olympia’s B-vent gas systems and Class-A chimney systems are not interchangeable. We inspect with a camera, measure clearances to combustibles, and give a plain verdict: convert with new Olympia Class-A venting, or stay with gas and optimize what you have. No guesswork, no “we’ll figure it out as we go.”
• Olympia Chimney firebox side walls with spalling brick or deteriorated mortar. In Northport’s harbor-adjacent homes, the freeze-thaw cycle is aggressive. Olympia fireboxes are well-built, but the refractory mortar between firebrick courses degrades after 15-20 years of hard use. We repoint with HeatShield Cerfractory foam or do a full firebox rebuild with Copperfield refractory materials, depending on what the camera shows and what your budget allows.

Our Olympia Chimney Fireplace Services Process

1. 1
   Call and schedule. A live person answers, day or night. We book a window that works for you, not a four-hour guess.
2. 2
   Arrival and protection. Our technician arrives uniformed, background-checked, with drop cloths and shoe covers. We inspect the Olympia unit, the surrounding hearth, and ask when you last had service and what you’ve noticed.
3. 3
   Level-2 camera inspection. We run a camera through the flue or vent system, photograph every joint, damper, and termination. You see the images on a tablet while we explain what we’re looking at.
4. 4
   Diagnosis and upfront pricing. We name the problem, show you the evidence, and give one flat price. If we need OEM Olympia parts versus a quality aftermarket option like DuraFlex or Gelco, we explain the trade-off and let you decide.
5. 5
   The repair, done right. Most jobs finish in one visit. We use the materials we quoted, test every function, and clean up completely.
6. 6
   Documentation and guarantee. You get photos, a plain-English report, and our 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If it’s not right, we make it right. No paperwork to dig up, no arguing.

Why Northport Homeowners Call Hearthstone Chimney Co. for Olympia Chimney Work

We’ve been answering the phone with a live person for over 42 years, and Russell Haines has spent the better part of two decades on rooftops across Long Island, including plenty of the older colonials tucked back near Northport Harbor where Olympia Chimney systems are common. We know the difference between an OC-42 and an OC-50, and we know that salt air off the harbor eats vent terminations faster than inland manuals suggest.

Our 90-Day Done Right Promise means if it’s not right, we come back. In writing, no arguing. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and carry professional-grade materials from DuraFlex, HeatShield, Gelco, Olympia Chimney, Famco, and Copperfield - no builder-grade substitutes pulled from a hardware store shelf. When you call, you get a person, not a callback queue. When we book, we show up. When we quote, that’s the number on the invoice.

If the chimney’s doing its job, you won’t think about it. My goal is to keep it that way.
