The smoke detectors were missing at the time of inspection. A qualified person should replace them as needed. The existing smoke detectors were tested if present, but they are only noted as to presence and operation as of the date of inspection. Smoke detectors may work today but not work when you need them to work. This is why it is important for you to test them on a regular basis, monthly at least. Smoke detectors are recommended by the U.S. Product Safety Commission to be installed inside each bedroom and adjoining hallway and on each living level of the property and basement level.
The countertop needs caulking with silicone along the backsplash. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.

Due to the year of manufacture (1984), the heating system is assumed to be near the end of its expected service life. Regular maintenance and monitoring of its condition are recommended. Budgeting for repairs and future replacement is recommended. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary. InterNACHI’s Standard Estimate Life Expectancy Chart for Homes
The heating system cabinet was corroded, rusted, or damaged in some areas. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
The condensate discharge pipe should be extended so that the water is diverted to a proper drain or to a proper distance away from the building and foundation. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
There was damage to the air-conditioner condenser coil fins. This limits the ability to dissipate heat. Further damage to the coil fins should be avoided in order to maintain cooling system efficiency and avoid problems from overheating of the compressor. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary and according to current standards.
Interior components showed rust in areas. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
The cooling system did not operate at the time of inspection. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
The heating system was short-cycling (repeated start-up and shut-down) at the time of the inspection. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.

Screws/fasteners were missing at the electrical panel cover. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
The water heater (1985) was at or beyond its warranty and/or expected life expectancy.
The water heater age was determined by the photo included in this report. According to the U.S. Department of energy, these major appliances are intended to run for between 8 and 12 years. Be advised that every water heater will age differently relative to the following life span factors: water quality, mineral buildup, frequency of flushing, the volume of water utilized, size of tank, brand, and quality of water heater. Although it was operating at the time of the inspection, the inspector can not determine the remaining life of the water heater.
Pipe fittings at the water heating equipment were corroded. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary and according to current standards.
The water temperature was higher than the acceptable range of 120-130 degrees. Recommend adjusting the water heater thermostat. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary
