Solve Water Damage, Chimney Leaks, & Creosote Problems With ChimneySaver Products...
Without being protected all new and existing masonry chimneys are susceptible to water damage, even if repaired. Because chimneys project above the roof line, they are vulnerable to the elements. Water damage can be prevented. ChimneySaver Water Repellents come with a 10 Year Warranty and have been used by chimney professionals for nearly 20 years. It reduces water penetration into the masonry by 99.9% according to ASTM tests conducted at the University of Wyoming. It is also 100% vapor permeable, which means it won’t trap water vapors. A chimney crown is a masonry roof that covers the top of your chimney. It prevents water from seeping into the masonry below. Water damaged or cracked chimney crowns can lead to costly chimney repairs. Chimneys are often capped improperly with mortar crowns instead of the recommended cast-in-place concrete crowns. If the mortar crown is loose, crumbling, or severely deteriorated, it should be replaced with a new cast-in-place concrete crown. If the crown is damaged but structurally sound, it can be effectively repaired with one of our three, easy to use, crown repair products, CrownSeal, CrownCoat, or CrownSaver. Flashing is the material at the base of chimneys, stacks, and vents that is designed to waterproof the juncture where they penetrate the roof. Faulty or deteriorated flashings can cause leaks and water damage to the surrounding roof deck or eventually the interior finishes of your home. FlashSeal is a long-lasting flashing repair system designed to stop leaks from faulty or deteriorated flashings around chimneys, stacks, and vents. A professionally installed FlashSeal application carries a 7 year warranty. A properly installed FlashSeal application is like installing a custom fit waterproof boot around the base of your chimney. FlashSeal’s strength and flexibility will provide years of trouble free service to help stop the damaging effects of water that can enter your home from a faulty or deteriorated flashing system.
Creosote and soot build-up in your fireplace or wood stove chimney can be a fire hazard if your chimney system is not properly cleaned and maintained. Occasionally wood stoves and fireplaces can produce a tar or glaze called third-degree creosote. Third-degree creosote is nearly impossible to remove by regular chimney sweeping. Instead of using caustic chemicals or a rotary cleaning device, (both methods are time consuming and expensive), Cre-Away chemically modifies existing third-degree creosote by changing it into a substance that can be more easily removed by normal chimney sweeping methods.
