Recommendation: After moving into the house I strongly recommend that you change the locks. Over the years, previous owners may have distributed keys to family and friends. A new set of keys would insure privacy and security. If there is a remote garage door opener, the remote code access should also be changed. |

Concerning mold in a home / building. Mold is a fungus that is found everywhere. It can grow in carpets, walls, wall-ceiling joists, and surfaces that are prone to condensation. Mold may be present in a home even if there are no visible signs or conditions indicating mold growth such as water infiltration, a common indicator of the presence of mold. Exposure to certain molds and mold spores may cause adverse health effects in certain individuals. The presence of mold and mold spores can also deteriorate building materials resulting in structural damage to a house. While we will report any substance that is visibly apparent mold, the only true way to determine if mold is present is to have a mold company/specialist test for mold. Capital Region Home Inspection Associates does not perform mold testing. Any mention of mold in this report should be considered a recommendation to bring in a mold specialist to test for the presence mold. If you have a specific concern regarding mold, consult a specialized industrial hygienist for advice. |

Ventilation is substandard in the attic . The installed ridge vent is the only ventilation present (solid soffit vents and no gable vents). Inadequate attic ventilation may result in high attic and roof surface temperatures; reduce the life of the roof covering materials and increase cooling costs. High levels of moisture are also likely, and can be a conducive condition for wood destroying insects and organisms. For this particular dwelling, no moisture or mold or insect infestation was noted in the attic. Standard building practices require one square foot of vent area for 150 to 200 square feet of attic space. Vents should be evenly distributed between soffits, ridges and at corners to promote air circulation. A qualified contractor should evaluate and install vents as per standard building practices. |

Noted that the chimney did not contain spark arrestors (rain cap). These caps are probably the most inexpensive preventive measure that a homeowner can employ to prevent water penetration and damage to the chimney. Chimneys have one or more large openings (flues) at the top that collect rainwater and funnel it directly to the chimney interior. A strong, well designed cap not only keeps this water out, but will also prevent birds and animals from entering and nesting in the chimney. Caps also function as spark arrestors, preventing sparks from landing on the roof or other nearby combustible material. Recommend qualified contractor install chimney cap. |

General comment to homeowner: The roof is comprised of architectural fiberglass or asphalt shingles. Asphalt or fiberglass roofing shingles generally have a service life of 15 to 18 years in this area of the country. Heavy duty shingles will often last 20 to 25 years before replacement is needed.Early signs of aging include brittleness,minor curling,and loss of material granules, while signs of advanced aging are severe curling, broken or split shingles,and exposed felts.The useful life of a roof can be extended by patching and coating eroded or worn areas as they become evident. As a roof approaches the end of it's economic life expectancy, patching becomes increasingly necessary due to an increased likelihood of leakage in the last few years of roof life. |

It was noted several areas of siding (on the North side of the house) which contain a visible apparent mold growth. During the summer and autumn months, mold spores flourish and multiply along susceptible areas of the houses vinyl siding. A humid climate, lack of direct sunlight and dying vegetation encourage mold spore growth. Because a single mold spore can multiply into a million spores in a matter of days, prompt removal is important. Recommend qualified contractor evaluate and remove using appropriate cleaning solutions. More information is available on www.vinyl siding.org/about vinyl siding/caring for vinyl siding/cleaning. |

Spalling was noted on the garage floor. Spalling is a result of water entering brick, concrete or natural stone and forcing the surface to peel, pop out or flake off. In concrete, especially, moisture and often salt, too, pushes outward from the inside. Eventually, spalling can cause crumbling and destruction of a structure. Recommend a qualified contractor evaluate and repair as needed. |

Garage door maintenance: Automatic garage door openers are installed in millions of households. Proper installation, operation, maintenance and testing of the garage door and automatic opener are necessary to provide a safe, trouble-free product. An improperly adjusted garage door opener can exert deadly force when it closes. This could lead to serious injury or death from being hit by a closing garage door or from becoming trapped under the door. There are routine steps that you should follow once a month. Review your owner?s manual for both your garage door and door opener. If you don?t have the owner?s manuals, contact the manufacturer(s) and request a copy for your specific model(s). Look for the opener model number on the back of the power unit. Look at the garage door springs, cables, rollers, pulleys and other door hardware for signs of wear. |

Garage door maintenance (continued): If you suspect any problems, have a qualified contractor make repairs. The springs and related hardware are under high tension and can cause severe injury when handled improperly. WARNING: Springs are under high tension only qualified contractors should adjust them. Rollers and hinges of the garage door require periodic lubrication. Use a spray silicone or light weight household oil according to the instructions in your owner?s manual. Periodically test the balance of your garage door. Start with the door closed. Disconnect the garage door opener release mechanism so you can operate the garage door by hand. You should be able to lift the door smoothly and with little resistance. It should stay open around three to four feet above the floor. If it does not, it is out of balance. Have it adjusted by a qualified contractor. |

Only one working carbon monoxide detector was noted. The leading cause of accidental poisoning deaths in North America is Carbon Monoxide (CO). It is an odorless, tasteless and invisible gas produced by incomplete combustion (for example by a malfunctioning fuel burning device such as a furnace, boiler, generator, water heater, space heater, blocked chimney, or running a car inside a garage). The only safe way to know if CO is present is to install CO detectors on every level of your home and in sleeping areas. Recommend a qualified contractor evaluate and install additional carbon monoxide detectors as needed. |

Arc Fault Circuit Interruption: Understanding the difference between GFCI (ground fault circuit interruption) and AFCI (arc fault circuit interruption) is very confusing for most homeowners. Basically, Ground fault protection keeps people from being electrocuted: Arc fault protection keeps your house from burning down. In electrical systems arching is a discharge of electrical current crossing a gap between two wires. Arching can involve temperatures of several thousand degrees Celsius. An unintentional discharge is called an arc fault, which can cause a fire in your home. Arcing is associated with loose connections or damage to a single wire. For example where a staple got driven into the cable and is causing an arc between the hot and neutral wires. The National Electric Code (NEC) initially required that an AFCI breaker be installed in bedroom branch circuits and has recently (2008) expanded that requirement to include branch circuits to all rooms that supply outlets or fixtures in newly constructed homes. The electrical system in this building does not include AFCIs for 15 and 20 amp branch circuits. Note that we consider AFCIs an important safety feature especially if a dwelling has older wiring. Although the cost of the AFCI is higher than standard circuit breakers consideration should be given to upgrading the circuits regardless of the regulatory requirements in effect at the time of construction. |

Smoke detectors were checked and were found to be working. It appears that none are hard wired into the electrical system and are battery operated. Smoke alarms that are properly installed and maintained play a vital role in reducing fire deaths and injuries. Having a working smoke alarm cuts the chances of dying in a fire in half. Ideally there should be smoke detectors installed on every floor, including the basement and the attic space, inside every bedroom, and in the hallway outside the bedrooms. The detectors should be hard-wired with battery back-up. Keep your smoke detector properly maintained. Test them once a week to ensure the detector is working properly and replace batteries once every year. Smoke alarms have a useful life of about ten years. At that age they should be replaced, even if they seem to be working. Recommend a qualified contractor evaluate and repair or replace smoke detectors as needed. |

Approximately three-quarters of the homes built before 1978 contain some lead-based paint. It may be found on any surface but is most commonly found on exterior-painted surfaces, interior woodwork, doors, and windows. Heavily-leaded paint was used in most homes built before the 1950s, with lower levels of lead used until 1977. In 1978, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission banned the use of lead-based paint in housing; Federal regulations require that home sellers provide lead disclosures to home buyers who are purchasing a home built before that year.
When properly maintained and managed, this paint poses little risk, however friction surfaces (windows and window sills, doors and door frames, and stairs and railings) are a concern. Lead-based paint that peels or deteriorates is especially risky. Harmful exposures to lead can be created when lead-based paint is improperly removed from surfaces by dry scraping, sanding, or open-flame burning. Take precautions to avoid exposure to lead dust when remodeling or renovating (call 1-800-424-LEAD for guidelines) or contact a lead professional to test for lead hazards. To find a lead professional go to epa.gov/lead. |
