What We Corrected
- Tamper-Resistant (TR) Bathroom Receptacles: Replaced non-TR outlets in the master and hall bathrooms with TR devices to meet safety and code requirements for dwellings.
- GFCI Protection for Bath Fan: Added ground-fault protection to the master bathroom exhaust fan as required for bathroom circuits and equipment in wet locations.
- Required General-Purpose Receptacle: Installed the missing receptacle to meet spacing and accessibility rules, eliminating an inspection deficiency and improving everyday convenience.
- AFCI Protection for Living Room Lighting: Provided arc-fault protection for the living room lighting circuit to reduce the risk of fire from arc faults in living areas.
- Floor-Heat Documentation: Ensured the manufacturer’s installation instructions for the floor-heat system were available to the inspector by providing them on site or uploading them to the permit record, supporting a smooth re-inspection.
Each correction was performed with careful attention to the applicable code requirements so the site would be prepared for re-inspection without surprises.
Why These Corrections Matter
- Safety in Bathrooms: TR receptacles protect against tampering, while GFCI protection helps prevent shock hazards in moisture-prone spaces.
- Fire Risk Reduction: AFCI protection detects and interrupts dangerous arcing conditions that standard breakers may not catch.
- Code Compliance and Resale: Passing inspection safeguards your schedule, supports warranty and permitting requirements, and helps maintain future resale value.
- Clear Documentation: Having floor-heat installation instructions available speeds up the inspection and ensures the system was installed per manufacturer guidance.
Our Process for Failed Inspection Fixes
We start with the inspector’s notes or correction list, verify each item on site, and propose the most efficient path to compliance. During the visit, our team completes repairs, upgrades protection devices where needed, and verifies function and labeling at the panel and devices.
For systems like floor heat, we make sure product literature is accessible to the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ), reducing back-and-forth and helping you clear the re-inspection on the next visit.
