There are approximately 40 million masonry chimneys in North America and the most common problem with these structures is water penetration. Water causes 1 billion dollars in damages annually in the form of staining, loss of insulation value, freeze-thaw damage, deterioration and ultimately structural failure.
All new and existing masonry chimneys are susceptible to water damage and, even if repaired, chimneys will continue to deteriorate if they are not protected. ChimneySaver (R), which comes with a 10 year warranty, is the first water repellent specifically developed to protect chimneys from the severe weather conditions to which they are exposed.
Chimney Saver is a WATER REPELLENT, not a water sealer. The difference could save you hundreds, or even thousands of dollars in repairs because sealers can actually damage masonry. Unlike waterproofing sealers that remain on the surface and trap water vapors, Chimney Saver penetrates deep enough to protect masonry from destructive water penetration. |
