A standard inspection called a Level 1 inspection is a visual evaluation without using any special devices. A professional will inspect all the standard structures that are accessible with a hand-held flashlight to make certain that there is no damage or deterioration. They will also inspect to see to it there is nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or debris. If you have never had any kind of problems in the past with regular use of your fireplace, this is the recommended evaluation.
An advanced inspection, or Level 2 inspection, is much more extensive. This will include everything that is executed with a fundamental inspection with the addition of a camera or other tool to check 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 sort of inspection done during a real estate 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 lot of modifications in the way you utilize your fireplace, then the more comprehensive assessment is also suggested.
A Level 3 inspection includes all the evaluations executed in Level 1 and 2 inspections, but additionally includes the removal of portions of the chimney or building like the chimney crown or masonry. This sort of inspection is only carried out in severe circumstances when it is absolutely necessary in order to confirm the safety and security of the chimney.
The National Fire Protection Association recommends that at minimum a Level 1 inspection be executed annually and maintained as required.
