A fundamental evaluation referred to as a Level 1 inspection is a visual inspection without the use of any type of special tools. A technician will examine all the basic structures that are accessible with a hand held flashlight to see to it that there is no damage or wear and tear. They will also check to make sure there is absolutely nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or leaves. If you have never had any issues in the past with regular use of your fire place, this is the advised inspection.
An advanced assessment, or Level 2 inspection, is much more in depth. This will include everything that is carried out with a fundamental evaluation with the addition of a camera or other tool to check the entire flue and internal chimney structure. It would also include an inspection of the attic as well as any areas surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the kind of evaluation performed during a property purchase for the sale or purchase of a residential property. It's also advised if you have had recent damage, quakes, chimney fires, or any type of event which might 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 adjustments in the way you utilize your fire place, then the more in-depth assessment is also suggested.
A Level 3 inspection consists of all the evaluations carried out in Level 1 and 2 inspections, yet also includes the removal of parts of the chimney or building such as the chimney crown or masonry. This type of inspection is only done in severe circumstances when it is absolutely necessary in order to verify the safety and security of the chimney.
The National Fire Protection Association recommends that at minimum a Level 1 inspection be done annually and maintained as required.
