This water
heater was replaced by a "professional" that apparently was in a hurry and left
the home owners with an unsafe condition. Whole House overview Some of our clients can not be
at the inspection so they request a walk through video. This is a service we
provide and is popular with investors. We see this more
often than we'd like. It's caused when there is a breakdown of the contact
between the breaker terminals and the panel buss. This will not trip the breaker
because it's upstream of the circuit. A dangerous condition that can cause
overheating and fire. It's not uncommon for us to
find "Pipe Hammer". It's caused by faulty or weakened washers or valves. Easy
repair but can cause pipe failure over time. This shows a separation
in the main duct plenum that's leaking a substantial amount of air. This
was new construction. believe it or not this is a commonly seen problem because
the installers don't take care to make sure the joints are properly and
permanently secured. These leaks can be a silent thief when it comes to Heat &
AC efficiency. This one is
kind of funny. It's a steam vent with bad motor bearings and making an eerie
noise when switched on. This was a fairly new house and all 3 of the steam vents
where bad. We find some level of
active termites or termite damage in about 50% of the home we inspect. We do
provide termite and moisture inspection and the documents needed by the mortgage
lender.
