A fundamental inspection referred to as a Level 1 inspection is a visual assessment without using any type of special devices. A specialist will inspect all the basic structures that are accessible with a hand-held flashlight to make sure that there is no damage or wear and tear. They will also check to make sure there is nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or leaves. If you have never had any type of concerns in the past with regular use of your fire place, this is the recommended inspection.
An advanced assessment, or Level 2 inspection, is more comprehensive. This will consist of everything that is completed with a standard assessment with the addition of a electronic camera or other tool to examine the whole flue and inner chimney structure. It would also include an inspection of the attic and any locations surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the kind of assessment executed during a property purchase for the sale or purchase of a residential property. It's likewise suggested if you have had recent damage, earthquakes, chimney fires, or any kind of event which may have affected the structure of the chimney. If you're preparing to have a chimney relining or you've made a lot of changes in the way you use your fireplace, then the more extensive assessment is likewise recommended.
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.

The National Fire Protection Association advises that at minimum a Level 1 inspection be executed annually and maintained as required.
