Can anyone tell me if Inspection21 school is a reputable school? My first choice was NIBI because it was recommended by a few different individuals, however, its location isn't convenient. Thank You.

Hey everyone,

We're in the process of redesigning NACHI.ORG, and we wanted to let y'all take a look at the most recent beta version.

The new site matches the existing site for the most part, but features a bunch of minor tweaks that will make the site easier to use and more pleasant to read. The redesign is the first step in a few site upgrades with have lined up.

Take a look, and let us know if you run into any issues:

I inspected a home today, where the owners complained about black, soot-like marks on the living room and kitchen ceilings. They have a six-year-old home with high efficiency gas furnace. The exterior furnace intake pipe drew much less air than the exhaust pipe exhausted. Is that natural? The furnace is in a small bedroom-sized basement room that is kept closed to keep out family pets. I thought the furnace might be starved for air and giving off soot that has collected upstairs. I tested some of these marks with a moisture detector. They were dry. I also used a thermal camera. The marks were somewhat cold. Any ideas?

Found this http://www.nachi.org/fl-cilb-approve...e-provider.htm which I guess is only for a wind mitigation course.. once taken does InterNACHI report this to the FL DBPR so we get credit?

Are there any other courses InterNACHI offers so we can complete the 14 hours of continuing education for a contractors license?

Do the class above also count/report for the HI license?

Last night I had a dream that I was admitted to a psychiatric facility. (Insert snicker here)

The strange part about my dream is that the only person who could make a phone call to get me out was..... Nick Gromicko.....

Seriously..... LOL

There is going to be a news story tomorrow night on I think channel 11 at 10 PM (Mon) on unlicensed home inspectors in Minnesota. Have no idea what it is going to be about, but bet it will not be good! Minnesota does not require us to be licensed so (duh) I guess they will be talking about all of us!!
