Nick, let us know the dates as soon as you can, so we can make arrangements. Thanks.

[Paul Pendley]

I also took the "ITA Commercial" course awhile back and the instructors out here were great and put out alot of information. Those that attend will find that the leap into commercial property inspections isnt that difficult.

Good Luck

I'll be there if you do the class after the 17th of February. That Saturday, the 17th, is the well certification course in Boulder. Later in the month is better, since the earlier part is already getting filled up. Weekday or weekend? I'd say weekday, but it probably depends on the teacher's schedule, right? Thanks for doing this. See you there.

I am already doing commercial inspections. I am hoping this isn't a basic course, serving as a commercial primer.

For 3 days, I would expect some fairly in-depth informaion to be coveyed (in depth info on inspection methods of commercial HVAC, electrical, etc - for example.)

That was the gist of my earlier question.

Feb 17th!! That is a little too soon, I would think (at least for me). I need time to make arrangements at home, and I also often get bookings as much as 3-4 weeks in advance.... more notice would certainly be helpful.

A commercial inspector generally doesn't do the mechanical inspection work. There are exceptions, but most of the inspectors I know doing commercial work don't do the mechanical side personally. A commercial inspector is more of a project manager, not a mechanical inspector. If you are coming to learn to assess a 3-phase panel... you might be disappointed.

[Nick Gromicko]

James: Correct. We won't overlap with Joe Farsettas upcoming course or NCE's upcoming course.

[David Nice]

Depends on the dates since we are having you here on the 27th it is kind of short notice but depending on the dates I might be able to swing it. Also if there are some cheap room rates that would be helpful (and would gladly share a room with another budget minded inspector).

If you could do it in March, I might be able to bring down a bus load of 20 or more.

So....did ITA EAT this cost or is NACHI funding the Seminar?

That's currently what I am doing (subbing out the HVAC and electric). I was hoping that we might get into what is being evaluated in those systems and how....

OK then, good info, but I think I have a lot of it covered so please give my spot to someone else (if this is the method of reserving space).

[Paul W. Abernathy]

Correct Nick....I do alot of electrical inspections here in my area for commerical companies prior to actual final inspection but it is contracted out so I dont originate them.

Seems that when dealing with commerical inspections they charge alot more and get specialists to look at each section of the construction, because I did one like 2 weeks ago and a local plumber I know was their doing one as well on the plumbing.....

Now I have done some commerical inspections where I did all systems but seems like the majority for the BIG commericial companies want specialists...but again I could be wrong but got the feeling that way.

[gbrasseur]

I would vote for weekday

[James Koong]

I will come to the class.
