Rain and melting snow insert moisture into unprotected bricks and mortar. As freezing and thawing occur, cracks form in the chimney
. Whether venting wood, coal, gas, oil, or even nothing at all, an unprotected chimney can result in dangerous leaks.
ChimneySaver Water Repellents, while repelling exterior rain and snow moisture, are specifically formulated to allow damaging water vapors produced within the
chimney when a fireplace is in use to exit through the bricks.
ChimneySaver Water Repellent is available in your choice of a Water Base formula, a Solvent Base formula, and a VOC Compliant Solvent Base
formula to protect chimneys and to prevent water damage to chimneys. Each formula penetrates masonry up to 1/4 of an inch, making them much more effective than other brands that just remain on the surface.
In addition to offering protection from water and damage resulting from freezing and thawing, Chimney Saver Waterproofing products are mildew and fungus resistant.
Water-Based ChimneySaver Water Repellent
is popular because you can apply it even to damp surfaces. Since ChimneySaver Water Repellent is VOC (environmentally) compliant, you generally don't need a respirator when using it outside. ChimneySaver Water Repellent is noncombustible and has no chemical odor. It is available in a
3-gallon and a 5-gallon container.
Solvent-Based ChimneySaver Water Repellent
should be used on chimneys previously treated with other types of water repellents. We cannot ship the Solvent-Based ChimneySaver Watter Repellent to the following states because it contains VOC's: CA, CT, DE, IL, MA, ME, NH, OH, PA, RI, VT or the Virginia Counties of Arlington, Fairfax, Prince William, Loudon, and Stafford. For those locations, we recommend VOC Compliant Solvent Base ChimneySaver Water Repellent. It comes in a
5-gallon container.
VOC Compliant Solvent Base ChimneySaver Water Repellent is 100 percent compliant with states and localities that have adopted the California OTC
Standard requiring a maximum VOC emission level in water repellents of of less than 400 grs./ltr. The VOC Compliant Solvent Base ChimneySaver Water Repellent can be shipped to CA, CT,
DE, IL, MA, ME, NH, OH, PA, RI, VT and the Virginia Counties of Arlington, Fairfax, Prince William, Loudon, and Stafford. If a water repellent has previously be applied to the chimney,
this is an appropriate choice. This formula is also the quickest drying ChimneySaver Water Repellent. This formula is available in a 1-gallon container.
Each gallon of ChimneySaver Water Repellent covers approximately 100 square feet of area.
ChimneySaver Pads are advised for catching overspray since ChimneySaver Water Repellent can discolor asphalt roofs and damage nearby shrubs. All products on
