While a home inspection will include a visual inspection of the fireplace, chimney and hearth, a WETT specialty inspection conducted by the Barrie WETT certified inspector includes a visual inspection of all the elements of any wood burning appliances in the home to make sure that they are installed correctly and installed in compliance with building codes and manufactures instructions. It will usually include inspection of the chimney for any potential structural or flue liner problems.
FREE Thermal Imaging
Barrie Home Inspection was the first home inspector in Simcoe County to offer Thermal Imaging with an Infrared Camera. Thermal Imaging is included FREE with Every Home Inspection. Thermal Imaging can disclose hidden moisture, missing insulation and electrical hot spots in your home. One insulation issue which is commonly found is that older homes did not require insulation to extend beyond 18 inches below grade and subsquently many finished basements will show a cold zone on lower walls where insulation was not installed. Cathedral ceilings are another area where builder missed an area of insulation which could not be detected other than using an Infrared Camera. Ensure your Home Inspector offers this service before committing to an inspection. Read more about Advantages of Thermal Imaging with your home inspection.
