Home Systems › Electrical

PanelSquare D
Amperage200 amps
Branch circuitsConduit
GroundingPlumbing ground + grounding rod
E-1 · GENERAL REPAIR · FIRE & LIFE SAFETY RISK

Conductors improperly sized to breakers

Implication: When conductor and breaker sizing don't match, the breaker may not protect the wire as intended, increasing overheating and fire potential.
Solution: Recommend evaluation and correction by a qualified electrician.

Water Heater & Plumbing

Home Systems › Plumbing

Water heaterBradford White, natural gas
Capacity40 gallons
AgeAbout 3–5 years (estimated)
P-1 · GENERAL REPAIR · FIRE & LIFE SAFETY · CARBON MONOXIDE RISK

Orphaned water heater

Cause: The high-efficiency furnace now vents directly outdoors, leaving the water heater to vent up the chimney alone.
Implication: A chimney sized for two appliances may not draft properly for one, allowing combustion gases to spill back into the home.
Solution: Recommend power venting or an appropriate chimney liner, installed by a qualified contractor.
B2-4 · B2-5 · B2-6 · MINOR REPAIRS

Plumbing leaks and slow drainage

Minor leaks, slow drainage and a leaking shower head were documented in the kitchen and bathrooms — repair as needed.

Furnace & Air Conditioning

Home Systems › Heating & Cooling

FurnaceLennox, forced air, 2013
Area served2,400 sf
A/CLennox, 2013, ~3–3.5 tons
FilterDisposable · size not collected
H-1 · GENERAL REPAIR

Humidifier leaks and staining

Leakage and staining were documented at the furnace-mounted humidifier — service and correct the leakage.

H-2 · MINOR REPAIR

Humidifier drain tubing dirty

Replace the tubing as part of humidifier servicing.

H-3 · GENERAL REPAIR

Condensate drain leaking

Repair the high-efficiency furnace condensate drain and confirm proper drainage.

H-4 · GENERAL REPAIR

Add screening, subject to manufacturer requirements, so animals cannot enter or nest in the intake/exhaust.

Sump & Radon

Home Systems › Water Protection

Sump pumpSubmersible, acrylic pit
DischargePVC, check valve present
Battery backupNot present
Radon systemPresent
OWNERSHIP GUIDANCE · WATER PROTECTION

Consider sump backup protection

With no battery backup, the basement depends on power and a working primary pump. A battery backup or other secondary protection reduces exposure during an outage or pump failure.

OWNERSHIP GUIDANCE · RADON

Test radon every two years

A mitigation system is installed. Periodic testing confirms it continues to work.

Implication: May be consistent with organic growth associated with elevated moisture.
Solution: Evaluate moisture sources and attic ventilation, then correct as recommended by a qualified professional.
Professional assessment · Baseline #1
A-2 · GENERAL REPAIR

Bathroom exhaust duct insulation missing

Uninsulated ducts can condense moisture in cold weather — insulate the ducts.
