Protect Your Home With Chimney Waterproofing
Is your chimney protected from water damage? With approximately 40 million masonry chimneys in North America, water penetration is the most common and costly problem these structures face. Don’t let your chimney suffer from staining, loss of insulation, freeze-thaw damage, and ultimately structural failure. Quality Fireplace in Waukesha, WI, offers the perfect solution: ChimneySaver.
Why ChimneySaver is the Best Choice for Chimney Waterproofing
ChimneySaver, backed by a 10-year warranty, is the first water repellent specifically developed to protect chimneys from severe weather conditions. Unlike traditional water sealers, ChimneySaver is a water repellent, not a sealer. This distinction is crucial as sealers can trap water vapors and damage masonry over time. ChimneySaver penetrates deep into the masonry to protect it from destructive water penetration.
The Dangers of Water Damage
Water damage to chimneys causes over 1 billion dollars in repairs annually. New and existing masonry chimneys are all susceptible to water damage, and even repaired chimneys will continue to deteriorate if not properly protected. Don’t wait for serious damage to occur. Act now to prevent expensive reconstruction.
The Science Behind ChimneySaver
ChimneySaver contains patented siloxanes that penetrate masonry pores up to 1/4″ or more. These siloxanes form strong bonds with the silica in masonry and concrete, providing up to ten times the water repellent protection of typical sealers with just one application. This deep penetration ensures long-lasting protection against water damage.
100% Breathable Protection
Moisture is always present in masonry and concrete, and sealers that form a water-resistant surface film can trap water vapors, leading to spalling, scaling, deterioration, and freeze-thaw damage. ChimneySaver is 100% vapor permeable, meaning it allows water vapors to escape while reducing water absorption. This breathability offers the best protection for your chimney and prevents expensive reconstruction.
Invest in Long-Term Protection with Chimney Waterproofing
No water repellent can replace good construction and workmanship. Before applying ChimneySaver, it’s essential to repair structural cracks, damaged crowns, lashings, deteriorated bricks, and mortar joints. Once these repairs are made, ChimneySaver can protect your chimney’s porous masonry from further water penetration.
