Do the Standards of Practice require inspectors to report as deficient the presence of a transite pipe to be reported?
Inspectors are not required to report the presence of transite pipe as a deficiency. Q: The Standards of Practice say that inspectors shall report deficiencies in electronic sensors in garage doors, but the general limitations section states that inspectors are not required to inspect photoelectric sensors. Do inspectors have to inspect electronic sensors in garage doors? A: Yes. The specific requirement to report deficient electronic sensors in garage doors takes precedence over the general limitation against inspecting photoelectric sensors.
