FAQs
Does my home insurance require a WETT inspection?
Many Alberta insurance providers require a current WETT inspection report for homes with a wood stove, fireplace insert, or other wood-burning appliance — especially when a policy is new or renewing. Check with your provider, or ask us and we can point you in the right direction.
How long does a WETT inspection take?
Most WETT inspections take about 30–60 minutes, depending on the type of appliance and accessibility of the chimney and venting system.
Can I bundle a WETT inspection with a home inspection?
Yes — a WETT inspection pairs well with a pre-purchase, pre-listing, or rural property inspection, especially for homes and acreages with a wood-burning system already in place.
What if my wood-burning system doesn't pass?
We'll walk you through exactly what needs to be addressed — whether it's a clearance issue, chimney maintenance, or an installation concern — so you know what's needed to bring it up to standard.
Do you inspect wood-burning systems in rural and acreage properties?
Absolutely. We regularly inspect wood-burning appliances on acreages and rural properties throughout the Edmonton area and across Alberta.
