Safety is a big priority for me on every inspection, not just for my clients, but for myself too.
When I’m entering basements, crawlspaces, or other areas where there could potentially be hazardous gases, I wear a gas monitor throughout the inspection. It monitors CO (carbon monoxide), O2 (oxygen), LEL (combustible/explosive gases), and H2S (hydrogen sulfide).
This is especially important when I’m running and testing fuel-burning appliances. Being able to monitor CO and oxygen levels while those appliances are operating gives me another layer of safety and helps me identify potentially dangerous conditions.
I believe a thorough inspection means more than just looking at the house. It also means taking the proper precautions to make sure everyone involved stays safe.
At Ways Home Inspections, your safety matters, and so does ours!
