A basic inspection known as a Level 1 inspection is a visual evaluation without the use of any type of special devices. A specialist will check all the basic structures that are accessible with a hand-held flashlight to make sure that there is no damage or degeneration. They will also inspect to see to it there is nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or build up. If you have never had any kind of issues in the past with normal use of your fire place, this is the advised inspection.
An advanced inspection, or Level 2 inspection, is much more in depth. This will include everything that is carried out with a standard evaluation with the addition of a video camera or other tool to inspect the whole flue and interior chimney structure. It would also include an evaluation of the attic as well as any locations bordering the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the kind of evaluation done during a real estate transaction for the sale or purchase of a residential or commercial property. It's also advised if you have had recent damage, earthquakes, chimney fires, or any kind 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 adjustments in the way you use your fireplace, then the more extensive evaluation is likewise advised.
A Level 3 inspection consists of all the assessments performed in Level 1 and 2 inspections, but also consists of the removal of portions of the chimney or building such as the chimney crown or masonry. This type of inspection is just done in severe circumstances when it is definitely necessary in order to validate the safety of the chimney.
The National Fire Protection Association suggests that at minimum a Level 1 inspection be performed once a year and maintained as required.
