Not a j hook in sight 💀

If I'm not mistaken and I could be, but doesn't the equipment have to have a means of disconnect for service?

Oh, give me a break! It’s not like those “required clearances” are in the “National Electric Code”. Pffff 😑

👾

Is this an old house …..

I think the people that work on the NEC have to justify their jobs by making changes, otherwise the people that pay them would ask what are we paying you for. Like afci’s, has there really been an independent study to prove they provide that much more safety ? 90 percent of the houses in the US have magnetic type breakers ( some still have knob and tube), and guess what, they’re not burning down left and right. I’m sure they are not forcing those on people just because they cost 10 times more than the ones we’ve been using for decades, and no politicians received any kickbacks for forcing home owners to use them.

If I did that installation. The inspector would be all over me

Thanks for the video.

Great job, very informative and easy to follow along. I am now starting my Inspector career. Do you have any videos of the office work or process after you find the violations?

I'm a builder. I would never install any foam board on exterior walls of a house. Because of expansion and contraction. I only use Rockwall on the exterior wall. Even Rockwall insulation will shrink over time. In another word, rigid board is best on the interior wall..😢😢😢 basement, garage, attic, etc.

Love your vids. Thank you for this. In the SF Bay Area, $600,000 gets you a studio apt with crack dealers and homeless outside. You can move further away and get a house where you will hear gunshots. A house like that here would be $2 mil plus.

I’ve been studying for about a year to get my 4 certifications to be a building inspector and your videos are amazing. Having no prior construction experience and being young these help a lot with tests to understand everything that goes into houses keep up the great work

Hi sir, i need help in installing dwv. Specifically for soil stack. It's a 3 storey concrete building. 1. Is it better to install outside or inside? Embedded to wall or just beside it? 2. Is it better to embed it to an CHB wall? Or outside the wall just beside it? And if it's embedded? Where going to embed it to an beam or column right? So the vertical pipe will bend to the beam and bend again embeding it to the wall? Is going to have like an 2 45 deg. Bend on a beam?

Go get em!

Foam off gases indefinitely. Horrible horrible idea. You’ll see in 30 years. EPA doesn’t even rate half those chemicals yet and even if they did and claimed they were safe would you really trust a government agency bought by lobbyists?

Distracting background music

Too much cause moisture in the attic...crazy to put the right behind the condenser no space to work on

Are they Only for load bearing walls? Can they protect against accidental drilling like nail plates?

they have not idea what they are doing working for free

nice joke

Can you give a code reference for the attic convenience outlet?

good

Check 110.26(A)(1)(a) working space is not required on dead front switchboards. That last one is not required.

Well built but no Joist moisture tape to prevent wood rot.

“you kinda zig on it you should’ve zag on that one” love it! lol I’m testing for an inspector position today. wish me luck! 🙌🏼 I’ll become a bada$$ inspector and will be using that phrase sir 🤣🤙🏼

My God.. dangerous

Here where I'm plumbing, the heat and air company run the intake and exhaust on the water heater not the plumbers.

That's clearly a 4 inch rough in for the water closet there, probably using a 4x3 closet bend to a 3 inch drain though...

This is the first video I've seen of yours. I haven't even gotten past the first part where you talk about saying um. You're about to give me some valuable information...for FREE! Say um or whatever you want as much as you want!

Hack job

I hate this guy already.

Good reminder sir. 👍👍🫡💪

Thank you, we had it one backwards 😂

Thank you ❤

Im watching your videos trying to educate myself. I have a garage disposal and a dishwasher. There is an outlet under my kitchen sink I never relalized was there. I think it plugs up to the dishwasher. Os that normal to see an outlet underneath the sink?

These are great videos. So good I'm like how do these people miss all this stuff if they are contractors. You definitely need someone who knows what they are doing cause people will slap anything together and tell you it's up to code. I'm watching these videos now as I am going through a situation currently.

thank you for videos...im a new inspector starting off....these are very informative

Is that broken cord something that can be easily and reasonably repaired or replaced by the builder at this stage?

Question what type of recessed light can I put in a ceiling with blown insulation in it? It would be retrofit

Where i live, unless there's a chase built to run the line set through. top and bottom plates can be cut to fit the lineset, but needs plate straps held with 16 penny nails on both top and bottom plates.

The plumber subed it out you can bet, no good plumber would do work like that.

What about the wood butchering.

In my are we are not allowed to cut or notch a truss or floor joist.

Also need diagonal bracing every 20ft for most lateral bracing per bcsi

Otherwise Pointless scab before MEP, definitely something going on. Check lumber grades on that interior 2x4 wall, you have an outlier

How do you vent if you’re framing 2x4?

or , you could use electrical range so you won't need a kitchen hood, so no make up air required.

nail plate and code in my state calls for 16 penny nails in all 16 holes. the line set is fine it just needs to be pushed back and a nail plate installed on the double.

Hi doing sr! All your videos are very good. I have a question the small drain pipe in the washmachine box is for any condenser pump? Thank you so much

there are hacks everywhere, just part of it
