A fundamental inspection called a Level 1 inspection is a visual assessment without the use of any kind of special tools. 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 wear and tear. They will also examine to make certain there is nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or leaves. If you have never had any type of concerns in the past with normal use of your fire place, this is the recommended evaluation.
An advanced inspection, or Level 2 inspection, is a lot more in depth. This will consist of everything that is completed with a fundamental assessment with the addition of a camera or other device to inspect the whole flue and inner chimney structure. It would also include an assessment of the attic and any areas surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the type of inspection done during a property purchase for the sale or purchase of a property. It's also recommended 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've made a great deal of modifications in the way you use your fireplace, then the more extensive examination is likewise recommended.
A Level 3 inspection includes all the assessments carried out 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 kind of inspection is only done in extreme circumstances when it is definitely necessary in order to confirm the safety and security of the chimney.
The National Fire Protection Association advises that at minimum a Level 1 inspection be executed once a year and maintained as required.
