A standard assessment referred to as a Level 1 inspection is a visual evaluation without the use of any special tools. A service technician will inspect all the standard structures that are accessible with a hand-held light to see to it that there is no damage or degeneration. They will also inspect to see to it there is nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or debris. If you have never had any kind of problems in the past with routine use of your fireplace, this is the advised inspection.
An advanced assessment, or Level 2 inspection, is much more in depth. This will include everything that is carried out with a standard evaluation with the addition of a electronic camera or other device to check the entire flue as well as interior chimney structure. It would additionally include an evaluation of the attic and any areas surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the type of inspection executed during a property deal for the sale or purchase of a property. It's also recommended if you have had recent damage, earthquakes, chimney fires, or any kind of 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 adjustments in the way you use your fire place, then the more extensive assessment is also advised.
A Level 3 inspection consists of all the evaluations done in Level 1 and 2 inspections, but additionally consists of the removal of parts of the chimney or building such as the chimney crown or masonry. This type of inspection is only done in severe circumstances when it is absolutely necessary in order to validate the 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 needed.
