Required for insurance policies and real estate transactions, a comprehensive inspection of your wood-burning system by a WETT certified technician.
WETT stands for Wood Energy Technology Transfer, a nationally recognized certification program for technicians who inspect and install wood-burning systems. A WETT inspection is a comprehensive assessment of your fireplace, chimney, wood stove, or pellet appliance conducted by a certified technician against established safety and building code standards.
WETT inspections are commonly required by insurance companies when you take out or renew a policy on a home with a wood-burning appliance, and by real estate transactions when buying or selling a home that has a fireplace, wood stove, or other solid fuel appliance.
Our WETT certified technician performs a thorough visual and technical inspection of:
A WETT inspection is not a chimney cleaning. It's a condition assessment and compliance review. If cleaning is needed, we'll advise you on that as part of the inspection findings.
Because we are both WETT certified inspectors and masonry specialists, we can identify issues during your inspection and provide a concrete plan, and accurate cost estimate, to resolve them. There's no need to coordinate between an inspector and a separate contractor. We do both, and we do both well.
WETT certified inspections throughout Ottawa, Kanata, Orleans, Gloucester, Barrhaven, Stittsville, and Rockland. Call to schedule your inspection, 613-286-1113.
