I have said my thing on this post. It will be the last one you see from me here. Good luck if you ever get sued.

I don't care to get into the middle of any thing here, but a question, if I have a general contractor's licence does that mean I am held to a higher standard then a HI

In California in most cases yes

If you are contracted to perform an inspection in accordance with the NACHI SOP, all of the rest of this thread is moot.

You have offered, by contract, to use the operating controls to test to see if the air conditioner comes on and turns off. Your client has agreed that this is the extent of your agreement and you have been paid, accordingly.

Neither your contractors license, fishing license, or marriage license will require that you do more than what you contracted to do and was paid to do.

Good night.

Perhaps, when you find the time, you can provide a case citation we can look up and read to support your claim. With so many millions of licensed Californians, there should be thousands of such cases....

A lot of times collars are not needed.
