About ChimneySaver Water-Base Water Repellent

According to the Brick Industry Association, chimneys require special attention and maintenance to prevent costly damage caused by water penetration. Because chimneys project above the roof line, they are vulnerable to the elements. Nearly every chimney you encounter has signs of water damage! The first step is to determine the cause and then find the best corrective measures. ChimneySaver, the first product developed specifically for chimneys, has been used successfully by leading chimney professionals for nearly 20 years. It reduces water penetration into the masonry by 99.9%, according to ASTM tests conducted at the University of Wyoming. It's also 100% vapor permeable, which means it won't trap water vapors that may pass through the bricks when the chimney is in use, unlike other products found in most hardware or home improvement stores. Those products when applied to a masonry chimney can actually slow down water vapors as they pass through the chimney leading to water damage. Coverage Rate: 90-150 sq. ft. Application Temperatures: Minimum 40° F. Application Method: Pump Sprayer. Dry Time: 1-2 hours (allow 6 hours before rainfall). Cleanup: Soap and water.
