A fundamental assessment called a Level 1 inspection is a visual evaluation without the use of any type of special tools. A service technician will inspect all the standard structures that are accessible with a hand-held flashlight to make certain that there is no damage or wear and tear. They will additionally check to make sure there is nothing obstructing the chimney such as birds nests or debris. If you have not had any type of problems in the past with routine use of your fireplace, this is the recommended inspection.
An advanced assessment, or Level 2 inspection, is much more in depth. This will consist of everything that is executed with a standard assessment with the addition of a cam or other tool to check the entire flue and interior chimney structure. It would additionally include an assessment of the attic and any locations surrounding the chimney.
A Level 2 inspection is the type of inspection done during a property transaction for the sale or purchase of a home.
