A standard inspection referred to as a Level 1 inspection is a visual assessment without using any type of special devices. A professional will examine all the standard structures that are accessible with a hand-held flashlight to make certain that there is no damage or deterioration. They will also check to ensure there is nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or leaves. If you have never had any type of problems in the past with regular use of your fire place, this is the suggested evaluation.
An advanced inspection, or Level 2 inspection, is more extensive. This will include everything that is carried out with a fundamental evaluation with the addition of a cam or other device to examine the whole flue and interior 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 done during a property deal for the sale or purchase of a property. It's also advised if you have had recent damage, quakes, chimney fires, or any type of 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 lot of changes in the way you use your fireplace, then the more comprehensive assessment is likewise advised.
A Level 3 inspection consists of all the evaluations done in Level 1 and 2 inspections, but also includes the removal of parts of the chimney or building like the chimney crown or masonry. This type of inspection is only carried out in serious situations when it is definitely necessary in order to confirm the security of the chimney.
The National Fire Protection Association advises that at minimum a Level 1 inspection be done once a year and maintained as needed.
