MAX5 Housing Just Got Better

At InspectionFire, we’re always listening to feedback from sweeps in the field, and the MAX5 Housing has just received a round of upgrades designed to make your inspections smoother and your gear more reliable.

More Stability with a Third Whisker

We’ve added a third whisker to the housing, giving your camera setup extra stability inside the flue. This new design not only improves balance while navigating tight spaces but also helps reduce accidental contact with the chimney walls—cutting down on the risk of scratches to your lenses.

Easier Lens Cover Replacement

One of the most requested updates was making lens cover changes less of a hassle. With the enlarged space around the lenses, you no longer have to remove the camera from the housing to swap out lens covers. This means less downtime on the job, fewer chances of dropping or damaging your camera during maintenance, and a faster turnaround when you need fresh lens protection.

Reinforced Front Cover for Durability

We know these housings take a beating during day-to-day inspections. That’s why we’ve thickened the front cover for even better durability. The MAX5 is now tougher than ever, ready to handle bumps, soot, and the demanding environments that chimney professionals face daily.

Built from Real-World Feedback

Every improvement to the MAX5 Housing comes directly from input by chimney sweeps who use our gear every day. These upgrades aren’t just about making the housing stronger—they’re about saving you time, protecting your investment, and ensuring your inspections run more efficiently.
