Hey John
I just seen this on local news also. They spend a lot of time complaining about crooked inspectors and drive by inspections but didn't tell us much else.
I assume there is no change to who can perform and sign reports

The last copy I seen there was no change.

John,
Do you have a link to the form that will be used? When will we have to start using it? Thanks for the update it is appreciated.

[John Shishilla]

I only have the form they were working on, that Nick had a link to awhile back. If I get any news I will post it.

on another note, Looks like Skytec is training again.

[Russell J. Hensel]

How do we get in on the training?

[Michael J. Meeker]

What is skytech?

[John Shishilla]

Skytec was a My Safe Florida Home Wind Certification Entity http://www.skyetec.com/

I will look for the form

[John Shishilla]

Here is the last version I have

[Michael J. Meeker]

I remember that now that I see it. How do they expect us to photograph a SWR or roof deck attachment. I personally think that form is terrible. I am interested in what others think about it and weather you guys will be raising prices for that version. I know I will if the market will support it.

[John Shishilla]

There is a SWR and roof deck nailing on the same home. The form has issues but until I see the final form I will save my breath. I would like to raise prices as I think it will take long to do and fill out.

[Michael J. Meeker]

Believe it or not I have been in quite a lot of homes where there was little to no shiners that I could see. I think it the swr will be rarely visible and impossible to verify what it actually is from the attic. Any idea when we will have to start using it and is it a done deal?

There are many times that I have a hard time finding a shiner. Sometimes you can only see the point. The deck spacing is usually enough to see the SWR, also by any roof penetrations. MSFH wanted paperwork from the roofer for verification of SWR.

[Michael J. Meeker]

That is what I do for the swr. I have clients show me the contractors paperwork if it is not on the paperwork then I suggest they get a letter from the contractor.

yeah, thats the only way for the self adhering, unless you get a pic during installation, you need docs, you can obviously get a pic of foamseal, but docs help too.
