A standard assessment referred to as a Level 1 inspection is a visual assessment without the use of any type of special tools. A service technician will check all the fundamental structures that are accessible with a hand-held flashlight to ensure that there is no damage or wear and tear. They will also check to ensure there is nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or leaves. If you have not had any concerns in the past with routine use of your fire place, this is the suggested evaluation.
An advanced assessment, or Level 2 inspection, is extra extensive. This will include everything that is executed with a basic inspection with the addition of a cam or other device to check the whole flue and internal chimney structure. It would also include an evaluation of the attic as well as any locations bordering the chimney.
