Inspection levels explained
The NFPA 211 standard describes three levels of chimney inspection. We use these terms so you know exactly what you’re getting.
Level 1
A visual check of the readily accessible parts: firebox, damper, the visible flue, and the exterior. Right for chimneys in regular use with no changes and no known problems.
Level 2
Everything in Level 1, plus a camera scan of the full flue and a look at accessible attic, crawlspace and roof areas. Recommended when you’re buying or selling a home, after a storm or chimney fire, or when changing the fuel or appliance.
Level 3
Used only when a serious hidden problem is suspected and a Level 2 can’t confirm it. It may involve removing parts of the structure, and it is always discussed and quoted first.
When you need an inspection
- Every year, before heavy fireplace use
- Buying or selling a home
- After hail, high winds or a lightning strike

Frequently Asked Questions
What are Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 chimney inspections?
These levels come from the NFPA 211 standard. Level 1 is a visual check of accessible parts. Level 2 adds a camera scan of the flue and is recommended when buying a home, after a storm or chimney fire, or after changes to the system. Level 3 means opening up hidden areas when a serious problem is suspected.
What is the difference between a chimney sweep and a chimney inspection?
A sweep cleans soot and creosote out of the flue and firebox. An inspection checks the chimney’s condition, from the crown and liner to the damper and smoke chamber. Many visits combine both: a sweep plus a basic visual inspection. See chimney inspection.
Do I need an inspection when buying a home with a fireplace?
It’s strongly recommended. The NFPA 211 standard calls for a Level 2 inspection when a property changes hands, because a general home inspection often doesn’t look inside the flue. A camera inspection can reveal liner cracks or damage before you close. See chimney inspection.
