A standard evaluation referred to as a Level 1 inspection is a visual inspection without the use of any type of special tools. A professional will examine all the standard structures that are accessible with a flashlight to see to it that there is no damage or deterioration. They will also check to make certain there is nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or build up. If you have never had any type of problems in the past with regular use of your fireplace, this is the recommended evaluation.
An advanced assessment, or Level 2 inspection, is more in depth. This will consist of everything that is completed with a basic evaluation with the addition of a electronic camera or other tool to examine the whole flue as well as interior chimney structure. It would likewise include an inspection of the attic and also any locations bordering the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the type of inspection done during a real estate transaction for the sale or purchase of a residential or commercial property. It's also advised if you have had recent damage, earthquakes, chimney fires, or any event which might 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 use your fireplace, then the more extensive assessment is also suggested.
A Level 3 inspection includes all the assessments done 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 kind of inspection is just performed in severe circumstances when it is absolutely needed in order to confirm the safety of the chimney.
The National Fire Protection Association recommends that at minimum a Level 1 inspection be performed once a year and maintained as required.
