  1. If I remember correctly you like to write article based on crap like this. http://www.fivestarpi.com/REALTOR.html Captain
  2. The sec looks like aluminum to me. Captain
  3. http://dispatch.careercast.com/texis/jo ... w=1&page=1 Captain
  4. Keyword is manufactured. You can sell a 10 seer as long as it wasn't manufactured after 1/23/06 Captain
  5. The trick is don't pop-um yet. Familiarize yourself with the house both inside and out. Look carefully in the garage if you don't see a gfci in the garage watch out and if you see a freezer or refrigerator watch out. Make sure before you leave that house that both the refrigerator and freezer are on. As Jim said listen for the pop.
  6. No, he wanted somebody with experience, not someone trying to obtain experience. Captain
  7. No, but they are getting better. Down here almost all new homes are flex. Example they use to lay the flex on top of truss, then they hang it with sting, then string and insulation, then chair webbing, now cardboard and chair webbing. That took ten years can't wait for the next ten. Captain
  8. I have done a couple of them. I took a college class in mechanical engineer and one of the projects was to do a manual J on your own home. Now to the best of my recollection there was no imput for duct types. If, big if, flex ducts are installed properly there should be little difference between them and rigid duct if the R value is the same. Captain
  9. That panel enclosure is a replacement for the original panel. That could be a FUBAR panel. Captain
  10. And I was afraid to see the response from my request. Just to clarify my brother needs the inspection for a client of his. He is new in the zoid biz and has not been too happy of what he has seen in home inspectors. And if you meet my brother garlic is not a bad idea. Captain
  11. My brother is in need of a good thorough home inspector in Albuquerque, NM ASP. He is a Realtor. Contact him at alancaptain@msm.com Captain
  12. In ASHI's backyard. http://www.suntimes.com/classifieds/hom ... 20.article
  13. Jimmy You put it more politically correct that me. But the results are the same. Captain
  14. IMHO it is because of ASHI's arrogance that NACHI has succeeded. And for that our profession is not better. Captain
  15. Mike I was not bashing I was just expressing how I feel. There are a lot of great inspectors that belong to ASHI and a lot of inspectors in ASHI that I do not wish to be associated. I have certain ethical beliefs that sometimes clouds my otherwise good logic. I guess it is the same reason I don't belong to any political party and haven't voted in 35 years. Captain If you are not a little whacked you not a good home inspector.
  16. I agree with Scott. I do not want to be associated with inspectors that can't inspect, inspectors whose client is the Realtor, inspectors who don't adhere to the SOP, and that's why I left ASHI. Captain
  17. You need to pass a competence test in order to delete your post. None needed to post. Captain
  18. Chad wrote "the next thing I know you have your hand in my pocket" What is he reaching for? Captain [:-censore
  19. Sacredgrooves I do not understand how you can be in this business around 27 years and get 90% of your business from Realtors. Why don't you get more referrals? Captain
  20. See how much you can learn and become certified at the same time. http://www.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/stori ... 858&EDATE= Captain
  21. Kurt Your right because a lot of zoids really get mad at me at my comments about two story homes. I recommend to my client that they never use the second level because stairs are the most dangerous components in a home based on statistics of some national organization. Captain
  22. Death Captain
  23. All of your 3 pronged receptacles (outlets) are not grounded. Have electrician ground them or replace with two pronged receptacles. It is dangerous to leave this uncorrected and could lead to death. Captain
  24. No that my opinion is better than the next. I have used pda,laptop,tablet computer, digatal recorder, paper, and tablet (no keyboard). Depending on your software if you can click with the stylus I say go with the tablet computer. I set up in the kitchen and go back to the kitchen to add comments. I found the pda a pain. Every time I took it out to make comment had to put it back. Sometimes I left it somewhere and had to go back and get it. Sometimes I make comment to quick without getting the whole picture. Correction on pda is a pain. If you do a tablet computer get extended warranty. Catain
  25. The problem I have is the picture on their business card does not match. I used to ask is that your sister or is that your daughter. I learner pretty quickly don't ask. Also if she looks pregnant don't congratulate her she may just be large. Captain
