A standard inspection known as a Level 1 inspection is a visual inspection without making use of any kind of special tools. A professional will inspect all the fundamental structures that are accessible with a flashlight to see to it that there is no damage or deterioration. They will also inspect to see to it there is nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or build up. If you have not had any kind of issues in the past with routine use of your fireplace, this is the advised inspection.
An advanced evaluation, or Level 2 inspection, is a lot more extensive. This will consist of everything that is completed with a basic evaluation with the addition of a video camera or other device to inspect the entire flue as well as interior chimney structure. It would also include an assessment of the attic and also any areas bordering the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the type of inspection carried out during a real estate purchase for the sale or purchase of a residential or commercial property. It's also suggested if you have had recent damage, quakes, chimney fires, or any type of event which may have affected 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 extensive examination is also recommended.
A Level 3 inspection includes all the assessments done in Level 1 and 2 inspections, yet 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 performed in extreme circumstances when it is definitely necessary in order to verify the safety of the chimney.
The National Fire Protection Association recommends that at minimum a Level 1 inspection be executed yearly and maintained as required.
