Nevertheless, mobile homes/manufactured homes do have some idiosyncracies associated with them that one should be aware of if one is going to inspect them. They're not quite the same as a single-family residence. Thanks for the link, though. Very useful information. |

I forgot about this thread, anyway, it doesn't matter whether it is a mobile home or not, and he did do a good job identifying, just thought it was mobile due to pretty much all of the items that others mentioned, was just making an observation of no real importance.

Almost all of our drain lines here are white schedule 40 PVC, and there is a bunch of CPVC used for the supply lines. Our mobile homes almost all have ABS drain lines (all black ****).
The 120v dishwasher isn't any kind of a give away to me, since I've never inspected a home with a 240v dishwasher. |

I've only seen hardwired dishwashers. But not like this. Regular NM cable with a universal plug installed on the end that is plugged into a receptacle. they even had the good old black electrical tape wrapped around it so the two halves of the plug wouldn't come apart.

If the water heater wasn't "plugged in,"
how would you get electricity to it? |
