Dangerous Venting of Furnace Found on Nampa Home Inspection

On this Nampa Idaho home inspection improper venting of the furnace and water heater was noted. No 45 degree elbow was installed when the line bent and tape was installed to seal the area. Over time this was damaged and exhaust gas is venting into the attic.

Client Says Thank You For Nampa Home Inspection

Thanks for the house inspection. I wish I could have been there but this long distance buying has drawbacks. Everything looked good to me and the problems seemed minor, I was impressed with the detailed report. Again thank you.

It’s A Jungle Out There…

 

I was doing an inspection the other day on a home in Nampa Idaho. When I entered the crawl space there was nothing to significant, a few vines laying on the ground.

As I work around the crawl space I noticed the increase in the amount of vines. As i got  to the back of the home it was like a jungle in there. There were vines around ducting, behind insulation, pulling on plumbing, literally all over. As I was crawling through this trying to still inspect the actual home, I kept having this thought of that reoccurring dream of them coming alive and grabing me. I kept wondering if I was in the little shop of horror. I was glad to get out of that crawl space.

You never know what you might find when you enter….

Word to the wise, you might not want to plant an Ivy or viny plant right in front of a crawl space vent. You never know where the vines will grow…..
