At Clear Path Inspections & Air Monitoring, safety starts with knowledge. Eric Novak, certified home inspector and WETT-trained inspector, provides professional WETT inspections for wood stoves, fireplaces, and chimneys across Central Alberta.

What We Inspect

During a WETT inspection, Eric focuses on:

• Wood stoves, fireplaces, inserts, and chimneys

• Clearances to walls, floors, and other combustibles

• Hearth and floor protection

• Chimney and venting type, condition, and connections

• Visible signs of creosote, damage, or improper installation

• Surrounding finishes and obvious safety concerns

The goal is to identify structural issues, clearance concerns, improper installations, and hidden fire hazards that could put your home and family at risk.

Why a WETT Inspection Matters

A wood-burning system can be a cozy, efficient heat source—but if it’s not installed or maintained properly, it can also be a serious fire or safety hazard.

A WETT-certified inspection can help you:

• Satisfy insurance requirements for wood-burning appliances

• Protect your home from potential chimney fires or smoke issues

• Understand whether your system is safe, compliant, and properly installed

• Plan any repairs, cleaning, or upgrades that may be needed

Clear Reporting You Can Use

Using a trained eye and industry-approved assessment methods, Eric provides a clear, easy-to-understand written report outlining:

• What was inspected

• Any safety concerns or non-compliant conditions

• Practical recommendations and next steps to bring your system up to code

At Clear Path, we believe peace of mind starts with a clear path to safety and a WETT inspection is one of the most important steps you can take to protect your home and family.
