Consideration shouldbe given to a sewer lateral test where a video camera is used to examine the piping. Older fixtures or components should bebudgeted for replacement. Supply line shutoffs are not tested. We recommend fixture shutoffs be operated during routinemaintenance. Our review of the plumbing system does not include landscape irrigation systems, water wells, on-site and/orprivate water supply systems, off site community water supply systems of private (septic) waste disposal systems and sewageejector pump operation. Review of these systems should be performed by qualified specialists before the close of escrow. Partof the evaluation should include a sewer lateral test which involves a fiber optic cable and video imaging on the drainage andsewer piping systems.All maintenance, repairs, corrections or upgrades should be made by qualified specialist's in the appropriate trade usingapproved methods.

[SC] Safety Concerns [FE] Further Evaluation [CR] Corrections Recommended [RU] Recommended Upgrade

PLUMBING INFORMATION

WATER SUPPLY SHUTOFFThe main water supply shut off valve was not located. This important shut off should be located for emergency access. Thelocation of the shut off should be confirmed by the Homeowner's Association.

POTABLE WATER SUPPLY PIPING SYSTEM:Materials: Copper piping.

DRAIN, WASTE AND VENT PIPING:The drain waste and vent piping within the structure is: ABS black plastic piping.

GAS SUPPLYGas emergency shut off location: The gas meter and shutoff valve are located at the right side of the building.

PLUMBING CONDITIONS

MAIN WATER SUPPLY PIPING/ SHUTOFF:The main water shutoff valve had no leakage observed. We do not operate these devices.

WATER SUPPLY PIPING:The visible water supply piping is in satisfactory condition. Other deficiencies may be indicated in the location of the condition.


03/14/2017





WATER FLOW:A number of fixtures were operated simultaneously resulting in a functional water flow.

DRAINAGE PIPING:The visible waste piping is in satisfactory condition. Other deficiencies may be indicated in the location of the condition.

WASTE FLOW:A number of drains were emptied simultaneously and functioned as intended.

VENT PIPINGThe visible areas of the vent pipes are in satisfactory condition.

GAS SHUTOFF:[RU] The supply shutoff was accessible. We do not operate these devices. There is no emergency shutoff wrench present. RECOMMENDATION: We recommend providing a wrench or installing aseismic automatic shut off valve for emergencies. The valve can then beturned 90 degrees to shut the gas supply off.

GAS PIPING:The visible areas of the gas piping appeared serviceable. Pressure testing is beyond the scope of a home inspection.

WATER HEATER

Our inspection of the water heater(s) includes a visual inspection of the accessible portions of the tank, gas and/or waterconnections, electrical connections, venting, seismic bracing and safety valves. These items are inspected for excessive orunusual wear, leakage and general state of repair. We do not light pilot lights or activate any system or component that is shutdown, unsafe to operate, or does not respond to user controls. Areas concealed from view by any means are excluded from thisreport. Water that has a higher temperature than the manufacturers recommended setting of 120 degrees poses a scaldhazard. The water temperature should never be set higher than the manufacturers recommended setting. All maintenance,repairs, corrections or upgrades should be made by specialist's in the appropriate trade using approved methods.

[SC] Safety Concerns [FE] Further Evaluation [CR] Corrections Recommended [RU] Recommended Upgrade

WATER HEATER INFORMATION

LOCATION:The water heater was located in an interior closet.

MANUFACTURER:Rheem.


03/14/2017





MANUFACTURED DATE:2002.

SIZE / GALLONS:40 gallon based on data plate information.

ENERGY TYPE:Natural gas.

WATER HEATER CONDITIONS

WATER PIPES:The shutoff valve and visible water supply connectors are in satisfactory condition and were insulated to minimize heat loss.

VENTING SYSTEM:The visible areas of the flue vent piping were intact and secured at the connections.

TEMPERATURE / PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE:A temperature & pressure relief valve and discharge line were installed. The discharge line extended to the exterior andterminated close to the ground facing downward.A temperature and pressure relief (TPR) valve is a safety valve that releases excess pressure from the water heater in the eventthe regulator fails. It is an important safety device that can prevent a dangerous explosion. Hot water may occasionally drip orspray from the valve discharge pipe, triggered by changes in water pressure. Leaky valves may fail from encrusted mineralresidue, and should be replaced. Most TPR valve manufacturers recommend the valve be tested once a year.

TANK CONDITIONS:The water heater tank is in satisfactory condition. No leakage was noted.The life of a water heater may be extended by periodically removing the sediment that builds up in the tank. Attach a gardenhose to the drain valve at the bottom and open the valve until the water runs clear. Drain valves commonly drip, and can berepaired by installing a plastic cap. The temperature adjustment control should be kept in the middle range; the watertemperature should never be set hot enough to scald someone accidentally. The life of a water heater may also be extended byreplacement of the sacrificial anode. These are generally designed to last only five years, and replacement anodes can beobtained at plumbing supply stores.

SEISMIC BRACING:The water heater was double strapped and stabilized/blocked to resist movement.

COMBUSTION AIR:Adequate combustion air supply for the water heater was provided. Adequate ventilation for all fuel burning appliances is vitalfor their safe operation.

CONTROLS:The temperature control was set in the "normal range".

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Our inspection of the electrical system includes a visual inspection of the exposed and accessible branch circuit wiring, servicepanels, overcurrent protection devices, a representative sampling of light fixtures, switches and receptacles. Visually accessiblelights and receptacles were checked for basic operation only. Service equipment, proper wiring methods, grounding, bondingand overcurrent protection are focal points. The hidden nature of the electrical wiring prevents inspection of every length ofwire. Areas concealed from view by any means are excluded from the report. Telephone, video, audio, security system andother low voltage wiring was not included in this inspection. The operation of timer control devices, if installed was not verified. The location of GFCI circuit protection devices will be identified when present. All maintenance, repairs, corrections or upgrades should be made by qualified specialists in the appropriate trade using

approved methods.[SC] Safety Concerns [FE] Further Evaluation [CR] Corrections Recommended [RU] Recommended Upgrade

GROUNDING:[FE] The inspector was unable to confirm propergrounding as the ground wire termination to thegrounding electrode was not visible or located. RECOMMENDATION: It is suggested that a competentelectrical contractor be consulted to determine that theelectrical system is properly grounded.Modern electrical services are typically grounded to thewater piping within five feet of where it enters thebuilding, a driven rod in the earth, and/or steel rodsembedded in the foundation. Older electrical services aretypically grounded only to the water piping. A groundingconductor is often visible at the main panel, but it is notpossible to locate the grounding connection. The gaspiping and other metallic interior piping should bebonded to the grounding system, including a "bondingjumper" across any removable components in the metalpiping of the building (i.e.: water pressure regulator,water softener, water meter).

MAIN PANEL:The panel is provided with a main disconnect breaker to shut down all power to the building. [CR] The circuit breakers are not labeled. RECOMMENDATION: We recommend the breakers be accurately labeled to allow individual circuits to be shut off formaintenance or emergency needs. [RU] The main panel is manufactured by Zinsco/ Sylvania. This panel has been known to present latent hazards bymalfunctioning under certain conditions resulting in jammed circuit breakers. The breakers may not trip (disconnect) underimposed load conditions. RECOMMENDATION: Upgrading this panel box to a more reliable panel box by a qualified electrician is recommended. This maybe a Homeowner's Association responsibility. Verification with the Homeowner's Association for correction is recommended.

Most jurisdictions nowrequire that smoke detectors also be installed in eachbedroom in new construction or when modificationsexceeding $1000 in value are made. Direct wired smokedetectors should also have backup batteries so they willfunction in a power outage. Smoke detectors should betested routinely by following the instructions in thedetector operating manual. Fire extinguishers should beprovided in kitchens and garages for emergency use. Wealso advise CO or carbon monoxide detectors be installedin buildings with gas-fired heating systems in accordancewith current requirements and in accordance withmanufacturer's installation instructions.[NOTE] Ionization smoke detectors have been proven tobe ineffective in household fires by adequately alertingthe occupants to a smoldering fire. Replacement of alldetectors with photoelectric detectors is advised.

CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS:A carbon monoxide detector was noted at the hallway. As of July 1, 2011. the owner of a dwelling unit intended for human occupancy must install a carbon monoxide device in eachexisting dwelling unit having a fossil fuel burning heater, appliance, fireplace, or an attached garage. The required carbonmonoxide devices must be installed between now in existing single-family dwellings and between now and January 1, 2013 forexisting multi-dwelling units.It is very important to install carbon monoxide detectors near or in each separate sleeping area. Many states now require that acarbon monoxide detector is placed in each bedroom. For added protection, placement of an additional carbon monoxidedetector at least 15-20 feet away from the furnace or fuel burning heat sources is recommended. Also, install carbon monoxidedetectors at least 10 feet from sources of humidity like bathrooms and showers. In two story houses, install one carbon monoxidealarm on each level of the home.
