Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

Dealing with Water that Drips Into the Chimney through the Liner
Are you having problems dealing with runoff water dripping through your chimney liner into the chimney? Chimney leaks are a common occurrence that can be solved when identified at an early stage. Herein we shall look at some causes of chimney leaks and how to deal with them.

The most common cause of chimney leaks is rain going in through the top. If your chimney has no top cover then it is likely to let in a lot of rain. To sort out this problem you will have to install a chimney cap which not only prevents rain water from going into the chimney but also keeps off animals and debris from going down your chimney.

Your chimney crown may be having cracks. Rain water collected on the chimney crown may be able to sip in through the cracks causing water leaks in your chimney through the liner. Cracks on the crown may force you to remove and have another crown laid.

Cracks in the chimney flashing may also cause leaks in the chimney. The cracks or spaces may be filled by flash seals to keep of water from going into the chimney. You may also use tar but it may only give you a short term solution. Causes of the leaking chimneys usually can be narrowed to 5 reasons. Suppose your problem is not solved from addressing items on list, probably your leak is not from chimney!

The chimneys without any covers get lots of rain coming straight down in them. The chimney cover will make a little sense to many people. Not just does this keep rain out, but also keeps animals, birds, and debris out. Greatest value of chimney cover is keeping it out because when the chimneys is blocked at a bottom, people will get sick (or die) from poisoning. Whereas it is true that sometimes uncovered flue is source of the water problems, often such reason for leak is when liner is metal. Thus, do get chimney cover & ensure it is not just this easy. You can prevent problems with the chimney inspection. After replacing allow the mortar some time to dry before you start using the chimney access door or it may come off.

Chimney crown is cement part on the top of chimney. Bricks go up over tile flue liners, however at a top you want something to stop rain & snow from falling around the tiles. Also, you can see purpose of chimney crown will be keeping rain out. Any cracks in chimney crown will happen from shifting of structure and from the shrinkage dating back on first day crown was put. When the crown has any cracks, water goes right from the cracks. The gas fumes are low temperature & have lots of moisture in it. The fumes condense inside of too-large and too-cold chimney, literally soaking bricks & keeping them moist every time. It just took a chimney liner & we solved this problem.
