A standard assessment known as a Level 1 inspection is a visual evaluation without making use of any special tools. A service technician will check all the basic structures that are accessible with a flashlight to make certain that there is no damage or degeneration. They will also inspect to see to it there is nothing blocking the chimney such as birds nests or build up. If you have never had any kind of issues in the past with routine use of your fireplace, this is the suggested evaluation.
An advanced inspection, or Level 2 inspection, is more comprehensive. This will consist of everything that is carried out with a standard inspection with the addition of a video camera or other device to examine the whole flue as well as internal chimney structure. It would also include an inspection of the attic as well as any areas surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the kind of inspection carried out during a property purchase for the sale or purchase of a home. It's also advised if you have had recent damage, earthquakes, chimney fires, or any event which might have impacted 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 utilize your fireplace, then the more in-depth assessment is also recommended.
A Level 3 inspection consists of all the assessments done in Level 1 and 2 inspections, but also consists of the removal of parts of the chimney or building like the chimney crown or masonry. This kind of inspection is only done in extreme circumstances when it is absolutely needed in order to verify the security of the chimney.
The National Fire Protection Association advises that at minimum a Level 1 inspection be carried out once a year and maintained as needed.
