This page is for homeowners in Ashburn who own an Olympia Chimney fireplace, insert, or gas unit and need a technician who knows the product line without upselling what isn’t broken. We’re not affiliated with Olympia Chimney; we are an independent Olympia Chimney service provider with no manufacturer obligations pushing us toward unnecessary parts. If you’re in Ashburn and your Olympia unit isn’t drafting right, won’t stay lit, or hasn’t been serviced since you moved in, call us at (571) 701-8135. We’ll send a technician who has worked on these exact models before.

How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia Chimney gas fireplace inserts (ODI series): The pilot assembly on early ODI units tends to soot up faster than comparable HeatShield inserts, especially in Ashburn’s hard water zone where mineral residue affects gas orifices. We pull the burner, clean the pilot orifice with the right gauge wire, and test flame color against the Olympia spec sheet. If the thermopile is dropping millivolts, we replace it with an OEM part or a cross-referenced Famco equivalent that matches the original rating exactly.
• Olympia Chimney wood-burning fireplaces (OWB builder series): The refractory panels in the OWB line are thinner than DuraFlex’s comparable units and crack diagonally from thermal shock, usually after five to seven seasons of Ashburn’s freeze-thaw cycles. We document the cracks with camera photos, show the homeowner, and install HeatShield refractory replacement panels rated for higher thermal shock. The flue doesn’t lie - and neither do we.
• Olympia Chimney top-sealing dampers (OTD series): The stainless cable on OTD dampers frays where it exits the chimney cap, especially on Ashburn homes with mature oak canopy that drops acidic leaf tannins onto the hardware. We replace the cable with a Gelco stainless assembly that has a heavier sheath at the wear point, then seal the penetration with Copperfield high-temp silicone.
• Olympia Chimney firebox throat dampers (legacy cast-iron): These warp from the center after a decade of over-firing, a pattern we see repeatedly in the older colonials near One Loudoun where homeowners burn seasoned oak hot and fast. We measure the warp with a straightedge, photograph it, and either machine the seat flat or replace with a stainless pivot damper from Gelco that won’t repeat the problem.
• Olympia Chimney direct-vent gas units (ODV series): The termination cap on ODV units clogs with lint and pollen in Ashburn’s spring, causing pressure switch failures that read as “bad board” on a basic diagnostic. We clean the termination first, test actual manifold pressure with a digital manometer, and only replace the board if the pressure proves correct. This saves homeowners from a $400 part they didn’t need.
