Risk Management – Chimney Inspection Reports for Major Home Insurance Companies
Risk management touches on many areas of life, such as the safe operation of a fireplace or chimney within a wood structure. Many insurance companies now require a client to provide a written inspection report if his or her home has a fireplace or a wood stove. As part of this new requirement from Allstate Insurance Group, State Farm Insurance, Travelers Insurance, and many others, the homeowner must have a certified chimney professional complete an inspection and then a report. Technicians at Midtown Chimney Sweeps provide inspection reports that homeowners in turn submit to an insurance company for verification of minimum safety requirements.
What do insurance companies learn from an Inspection Report?
- Safe distance between combustibles and a room heater (often a solid-fuel burning appliance)
- Clearance of combustibles away from the connected pipe and chimney
- Quality and condition of the connector pipe and chimney
- Other items included in the National Fire Protection Association 211 Chapter 15
