Finish with airflow verification and odor checks to confirm effective removal and stable draft for safe operation.
Detailed Inspections and Safety Assessments
Prior to lighting your first seasonal fire, schedule a Level I-III inspection that follows NFPA 211 to confirm the proper condition and compliance of your chimney and fireplace system. Level I examines clearances and general condition, whereas Level II adds video scanning of flues and accessible areas. A Level III assessment examines hidden sections when significant hazards are suspected.
