A fundamental assessment known as a Level 1 inspection is a visual assessment without the use of any special devices. A specialist will examine all the basic structures that are accessible with a hand held light to make certain that there is no damage or degeneration. They will likewise check to ensure there is nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or leaves. If you have not had any issues in the past with regular use of your fireplace, 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 basic inspection with the addition of a camera or other device to inspect the whole flue as well as interior chimney structure. It would also include an inspection of the attic and any areas bordering the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the kind of assessment performed during a real estate deal for the sale or purchase of a residential or commercial property. It's also suggested if you have had recent damage, earthquakes, 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've made a great deal of changes in the way you use your fire place, then the more in-depth evaluation is also advised.
A Level 3 inspection includes all the evaluations performed in Level 1 and 2 inspections, but also consists of the removal of parts of the chimney or building like the chimney crown or masonry. This kind of inspection is only carried out in serious situations when it is absolutely necessary in order to verify the safety and security of the chimney.
The National Fire Protection Association suggests that at minimum a Level 1 inspection be executed once a year and maintained as required.
