Fireplace Inspection and Sweep
The NFPA Standards states you should have a level 2 inspection completed at the time of any real estate transactions. This is partially for the safety of your family, and also to protect you from hidden costly repairs after you move in.
The NFPA states you should have your chimney checked once per year to protect your family from chimney fires and dangerous fumes that could make their way into your home if your chimney isn’t performing properly.
