A fundamental evaluation referred to as a Level 1 inspection is a visual examination without the use of any special devices. A service technician will examine all the basic 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 certain there is nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or build up. If you have never had any type of concerns in the past with normal use of your fireplace, this is the suggested evaluation.
An advanced evaluation, or Level 2 inspection, is a lot more in depth. This will include everything that is executed with a fundamental inspection with the addition of a cam or other tool to examine the entire flue as well as inner chimney structure. It would also include an assessment of the attic as well as any areas bordering the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the kind of inspection done during a property deal for the sale or purchase of a home. It's also suggested if you have had recent damage, quakes, chimney fires, or any type of event which might have impacted the structure of the chimney. If you're preparing to have a chimney relining or you've made a lot of modifications in the way you utilize your fire place, then the more extensive assessment is additionally advised.
A Level 3 inspection includes all the evaluations performed 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.
