Half of the sliding door had this "condition". At first, I thought it was a broken thermal seal, but under closer investigation, it looked more "metallic". Is this a Low-E coating that has gone bad somehow? Thanks guys.

Hello everyone,

I am trying to get some hands on home inspection experience. I recently completed the Internachi inspector's exam and have completed various other courses (30) . I live in Ajax Ontario and am trying to find inspectors or companies that would allow me to tag along and learn from their inspections. Can anyone provide me the name of an inspector or company that might fit the bill ?. I don't want to create/upload a website or go through the business card/pamphlet/real estate agent process until I actually have experience.

Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I was on the pearson vue website and called, do I need to take the NHIE exam or the FL DBPR EBPHI. I thought it was the NHIE but the lady on the phone was not sure. Any ideas?

No neutral coming out of the raceway. Double tapped grounds in what I thought is the neutral lug. Is this a dangerous situation if grounding is interrupted. I need some serious help with this one. Thank you in advance

BTW I'm trying out google drive....let me know if I should post the pics directly.

Missing neutral...

An agent sent me an e-mail asking me---
please don’t ask buyers if they want a radon test. Please only say that you can do them if they bring it up themselves. Discussing this test with them after the fact can mess with the agreed upon purchase agreement and cause issues for us inside the deal.
How do you handle radon tests in a transaction?

Anyone want a wind mit in Eustis? or anyone who can cover lake county and surrounding areas.

Please don't call me tonight call me tomorrow.

Good evening all,

Since there does not appear to be an active chapter in the Greater Jacksonville area and there are approximately 100 InterNACHI certified inspectors in Jacksonville, it is my intention to form a viable InterNACHI chapter serving the Greater Jacksonville area. The chapter will be called the 1st Coast Chapter of InterNACHI (with InterNACHI's approval) of course. The goal or mission of the chapter will be to promote the professional home inspector profession and InterNACHI in the greater Jacksonville area (Northeast Florida). All professional inspectors in the Greater Jacksonville area are welcome and encouraged to participate. I hope to be working with Nick and the staff at InterNACHI to set up a chapter website and really drive the Jacksonville market. Any professional inspectors in the Jacksonville area that would be interested or willing to help get this Chapter up and running, please contact me. I could also use some help and/or guidance from other Florida Chapter leaders who have successful chapters.

Anyone in Citrus County area want some Wind mit's and Four Points?

I will have mold remediation company come in to take care of elevated-level of mold, mainly cleaning the carpet and hvac. I would like to have post mold inspection done afterwards. How many days should I wait to have the test done? Just in case, no live mold returns :-) Please help! Thanks.

This is just a heads up for those wishing to take the NRPP exam for Radon measurement.
The nachi Radon course has been approved as a pre-testing course. It is not listed on the NRPP website. But I did get confirmation from them that it will work. Whilst the Nachi course is ok it is too in depth for exam prep. If your prepping for the exam then my recommendations are the following:
1. Do the Nachi Radon Course
2. Do the Nachi Radon course again.
3. Learn in detail about the different types of testing methods.
4. Learn about the pros & cons for each testing method.
5. Learn about what if's i.e. one above 4pCi/L one below 4pCi/L with regards to real estate transactions.

Hope this helps
