A basic inspection known as a Level 1 inspection is a visual assessment without the use of any type of special tools. A specialist will examine all the basic structures that are accessible with a hand held light to ensure that there is no damage or deterioration. They will also inspect to ensure there is absolutely nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or debris. If you have never had any type of issues in the past with routine use of your fire place, this is the suggested inspection.
An advanced inspection, or Level 2 inspection, is a lot more extensive. This will include everything that is carried out with a basic assessment with the addition of a cam or other tool to inspect the entire flue and inner chimney structure. It would also include an assessment of the attic as well as any locations surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the type of evaluation executed during a real estate deal for the sale or purchase of a residential or commercial property. It's also recommended if you have had recent damage, quakes, chimney fires, or any type of event which may have affected 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 fire place, then the more comprehensive examination is also advised.
A Level 3 inspection consists of all the evaluations done in Level 1 and 2 inspections, yet also consists of the removal of parts of the chimney or building like the chimney crown or masonry. This type of inspection is just carried out in serious situations when it is absolutely necessary in order to confirm the security of the chimney.
The National Fire Protection Association suggests that at minimum a Level 1 inspection be executed yearly and maintained as needed.
