A standard assessment called a Level 1 inspection is a visual inspection without making use of any special devices. A technician will inspect all the fundamental structures that are accessible with a hand-held flashlight to see to it that there is no damage or deterioration. They will additionally check to ensure there is absolutely nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or debris. If you have never had any concerns in the past with routine use of your fireplace, this is the recommended inspection.
An advanced assessment, or Level 2 inspection, is much more in depth. This will include everything that is completed with a basic assessment with the addition of a electronic camera or other device to inspect the whole flue as well as internal chimney structure. It would also include an assessment of the attic and any areas bordering the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the type of inspection executed during a real estate transaction 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 event which may have impacted the structure of the chimney. If you're preparing to have a chimney relining or you've made a lot of adjustments in the way you utilize your fire place, then the more extensive assessment is also recommended.
A Level 3 inspection includes all the assessments performed in Level 1 and 2 inspections, but also includes the removal of parts of the chimney or building such as the chimney crown or masonry. This sort of inspection is only performed in extreme situations when it is definitely needed in order to validate the safety of the chimney.
The National Fire Protection Association suggests that at minimum a Level 1 inspection be done annually and maintained as needed.
