BTW. My wiring/cable is 1/2" copper soldered at the joints. The house was built in the 1800s. There is no insulation on it! Is this OK? Joe Funderburk, CMI Alpha & Omega Home Inspections, LLC Inspecting Upstate SC & Charlotte Metro, NC NACHI ID: NACHI05120170 www.aohomeinspection.com |

If you look hard, you'll see some copper in that photo also. That must be the high voltage stuff.

That would be the smart thing for them to do and maybe more will move in that direction. In my area most insurance offices are manned by women (I get the irony of that statement) and they have no intentions of going out to a property. Many moons ago a lot of insurance companies had their own inspectors on staff or retainer but I do not see that anymore. I have a couple of offices that call me regularly to do 4 Point inspections for their clients.

The post was deleted. Got a little embarrassed I suspect, not knowing the difference between low-voltage PEX and high voltage copper.

My new house is wired with PEX, but my Realtor told me they had a class-action suit... something about water getting in and shorting it out. I don't know if it's low or high voltage PEX, though... what's the difference?
And Joe, rest easy - Florida will be getting licensure sometime, somewhere - if they can figure out how to pay for it! |
