A standard assessment called a Level 1 inspection is a visual examination without making use of any type of special tools. A service technician will examine all the standard structures that are accessible with a hand held light to make certain that there is no damage or deterioration. They will also check to make sure there is nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or debris. If you have never had any kind of issues in the past with regular use of your fire place, this is the recommended evaluation.
An advanced inspection, or Level 2 inspection, is extra extensive. This will include everything that is completed with a basic assessment with the addition of a cam or other tool to examine the entire flue and inner chimney structure. It would also include an assessment of the attic as well as any locations bordering the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the sort of assessment performed during a property purchase for the sale or purchase of a residential property. It's also advised if you have had recent damage, earthquakes, chimney fires, or any event which might have impacted the structure of the chimney. If you're preparing to have a chimney relining or you have actually made a great deal of changes in the way you utilize your fireplace, then the more thorough evaluation is likewise recommended.
A Level 3 inspection includes all the evaluations carried out in Level 1 and 2 inspections, but also includes the removal of portions of the chimney or building such as the chimney crown or masonry.
