The initial Level I assessment reviews standard safety requirements, while Level II incorporates comprehensive video inspection of reachable zones. The most thorough Level III inspection investigates concealed areas when major safety concerns arise.
As part of our evaluation, we record the integrity of the liner, crown and cap status, and clearances to combustibles and termination heights, and draft performance. We perform ventilation testing to ensure appropriate air supply and exhaust function. Our comprehensive review examines the condition of the damper, firebox, and smoke chamber, gas log safety, appliance connections, and CO pathways. You'll receive a comprehensive assessment with images and recommendations to enhance system performance and address safety concerns.
