A basic assessment referred to as a Level 1 inspection is a visual evaluation without using any type of special tools. A technician will check 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 examine to make sure there is nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or debris. If you have not had any issues in the past with normal use of your fireplace, this is the suggested inspection.
An advanced inspection, or Level 2 inspection, is a lot more extensive. This will include everything that is completed with a basic assessment with the addition of a camera or other device to examine the whole flue and inner chimney structure. It would also include an assessment of the attic and any locations bordering the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the kind of assessment executed during a real estate deal for the sale or purchase of a residential property. It's also suggested if you have had recent damage, quakes, chimney fires, or any kind of event which may have impacted the structure of the chimney. If you're preparing to have a chimney relining or you've made a great deal of changes in the way you use your fireplace, then the more in-depth examination is likewise suggested.
A Level 3 inspection consists of all the evaluations performed in Level 1 and 2 inspections, but also includes the removal of parts of the chimney or building like the chimney crown or masonry. This kind of inspection is only performed in serious situations when it is definitely necessary in order to verify the safety and security of the chimney.
The National Fire Protection Association recommends that at minimum a Level 1 inspection be performed annually and maintained as needed.
