F.I.R.E. Certification

Industry-Leading Certification. Unmatched Local Expertise.

At Flame Masters Fireplace Solutions, we’re proud to raise the standard of fireplace and chimney inspections in Southeast Missouri. Our owner, Jordan, has officially completed the F.I.R.E. Certified Inspector Program—a nationally recognized certification that places Flame Masters as the only company in our area with this level of specialized training.

This achievement directly benefits every homeowner we serve—and proves our continued commitment to safety, code compliance, and expert service.

What Is F.I.R.E. Certification?

The F.I.R.E. Certified Inspector Program is the first and only certification in the U.S. specifically for the inspection of fireplaces, chimneys, and vented appliances. It’s not a general home inspection course—it’s a rigorous, multi-day training tailored solely to hearth systems.

Certified inspectors learn how to:

  • Diagnose fire hazards, drafting issues, and structural defects

  • Evaluate system performance across a wide range of appliance types

  • Verify compliance with NFPA 211, IRC, manufacturer manuals, and other relevant codes

  • Communicate findings clearly to homeowners, insurance companies, and contractors

  • Provide informed recommendations based on real-world system conditions

This program is operated by F.I.R.E. Service, Inc., a trusted leader in the education and investigation of hearth appliance safety.

Why It Matters

Most inspectors are trained generally across many areas of a home—but fireplace and chimney systems are complex. Without proper training, hazards can be missed, and improperly diagnosed issues can put your home at risk.

With F.I.R.E. certification, you’re getting more than just an inspection—you’re getting expertise.

With our F.I.R.E. Certification, you can expect:

  • Thorough, code-based evaluations of your chimney and fireplace system

  • Detection of hidden hazards like carbon monoxide risks, creosote buildup, or structural voids

  • Trusted guidance on masonry deterioration, venting issues, insert installations, and more

  • Peace of mind knowing your system has been reviewed by a nationally certified inspector
