A standard inspection known as a Level 1 inspection is a visual inspection without using any type of special devices. A technician will inspect all the fundamental structures that are accessible with a flashlight to ensure 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 debris. If you have not had any concerns in the past with normal 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 cam or other device to examine the entire flue as well as interior chimney structure. It would additionally include an evaluation of the attic and any locations surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the kind of assessment executed during a real estate purchase for the sale or purchase of a residential property. It's also advised if you have had recent damage, earthquakes, chimney fires, or any kind of event which may 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 utilize your fireplace, then the more thorough examination is also suggested.
A Level 3 inspection consists of all the evaluations done 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 type of inspection is just performed in extreme circumstances when it is definitely necessary in order to confirm the safety and security of the chimney.
The National Fire Protection Association recommends that at minimum a Level 1 inspection be executed once a year and maintained as needed.
