A basic evaluation referred to as a Level 1 inspection is a visual assessment without using any kind of special devices. A service technician will inspect all the standard structures that are accessible with a hand held light to see to it that there is no damage or wear and tear. They will also inspect to make sure there is absolutely nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or debris. If you have not had any issues in the past with regular use of your fire place, this is the recommended evaluation.
An advanced inspection, or Level 2 inspection, is more extensive. This will consist of everything that is carried out with a fundamental evaluation with the addition of a video camera or other device to check the entire flue and inner chimney structure. It would likewise include an inspection of the attic as well as any areas surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the sort of inspection executed during a property deal for the sale or purchase of a 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 great deal of adjustments in the way you utilize your fireplace, then the more in-depth examination is also suggested.
A Level 3 inspection includes all the assessments performed in Level 1 and 2 inspections, but also consists of the removal of parts of the chimney or building such as the chimney crown or masonry. This sort of inspection is just performed in extreme situations 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 executed annually and maintained as needed.
