Why Chimney Inspection Matters for Every Homeowner

Your chimney does more than let smoke escape. It protects your family from dangerous gases like carbon monoxide and keeps your home safe from fire hazards. Over time, creosote builds up inside the flue, and cracks can form without you even knowing. A professional chimney inspection catches these problems before they turn into expensive repairs or safety risks. Think about it this way. You get your car checked regularly, right? Your chimney deserves the same attention. Most homeowners forget about their chimneys until something goes wrong. By then, the damage is already done. Regular inspections save you money and give you peace of mind every time you light a fire.

Our Expert Chimney Inspection Services

Green Air Duct Club brings the same dedication to chimney inspection that we've offered San Antonio since 2009. Our founder started this company after watching a family member struggle with asthma. That personal connection drives everything we do. We understand that your home's air quality and safety are not just technical issues. They affect real people and real families. Our team uses the latest tools and techniques to examine every part of your chimney system. We check the flue liner, the damper, the crown, and the exterior brickwork. Nothing gets overlooked. After every chimney inspection, you receive a detailed report explaining exactly what we found and what steps you should take next.

Level 1 Chimney Inspection

A Level 1 inspection is perfect for homeowners who use their fireplace regularly and haven't made any changes to their system. Our inspectors examine all readily accessible parts of your chimney and fireplace. We check for basic soundness, proper clearances, and obvious deposits or obstructions. This chimney inspection level works great for annual maintenance when everything seems to be working fine. It's the most affordable option and keeps your system running safely year after year.

Level 2 Chimney Inspection

Level 2 inspections go deeper than the basics. This service includes everything in Level 1 plus a video scan of your flue's interior. We recommend this chimney inspection when you're buying or selling a home, switching fuel types, or after a chimney fire or weather event. Our inspectors also examine accessible attic spaces and crawl spaces. You get a complete picture of your chimney's condition with detailed documentation perfect for real estate transactions or insurance claims.

Level 3 Chimney Inspection

When serious hazards are suspected, a Level 3 inspection becomes necessary. This comprehensive chimney inspection may require removing certain components to access hidden areas of your system. Our team investigates concealed portions of the chimney structure and flue. We only recommend this level when Level 1 or Level 2 inspections reveal potential problems that need further investigation. Though more involved, this thorough approach uncovers issues that could otherwise put your home and family at risk.

Keep Your Home Safe and Efficient

Safety comes first, but efficiency matters too. A dirty or damaged chimney makes your fireplace work harder than it should. That means more wood burned and less heat reaching your living room. When your chimney operates at peak performance, you enjoy warmer fires and lower heating costs during those chilly San Antonio nights.

A proper chimney inspection also extends the life of your entire fireplace system. Small problems caught early stay small. Ignored issues grow into major projects that hit your wallet hard. Investing in regular inspections is one of the smartest moves any homeowner can make for long-term home maintenance.

What Our Certified Chimney Inspectors Look For

A thorough inspection covers more ground than most people realize. Our certified inspectors examine your chimney from top to bottom. We look for creosote buildup, which is the number one cause of chimney fires in American homes. We also check for blockages from animal nests, leaves, or debris that can trap dangerous gases inside your house.
Structural issues matter too. Cracks in the flue liner allow heat to reach combustible materials in your walls. Damaged mortar joints let water seep in, leading to costly repairs down the road. Our chimney inspection process identifies these problems early so you can fix them before they become major headaches.
Here's what our inspectors examine during every visit:
