The locking hardware is damaged or not installed properly and the door isn’t able to be locked. Recommend a qualified contractor evaluate and repair or replace as needed.
The outside water faucet had a significant leak from the knob/handle when the water pressure gauge was attached. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary and according to current standards.
Signs of previous water penetration or intrusion into the attic. Water marks or stains were observed. Recommend asking seller if there’s any recent incidents that have been documented or mitigated.
Further evaluation is recommended.
Bathroom vent duct terminated in the attic and did not vent to the exterior of property.
The door between the garage and the living space failed to close by itself. Modern safety requirements require that the door between the home interior and the garage be self-closing for safety reasons related to fire hazard and toxic fumes. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
The door had missing or damaged floor guides. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
One or more light bulbs were not working at the time of inspection. Recommend a qualified contractor evaluate and repair or replace as needed.
At the interior stairs, the handrail was loose. A fall or injury could occur if not corrected. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
Carbon monoxide detectors were not installed within a specified distance of each room lawfully used for sleeping purposes. The inspector recommends installation of carbon monoxide detectors in appropriate locations. Colorado House bill 1091 became effective on July 1, 2009 that requires Carbon Monoxide detectors to be installed in most properties that has a fuel-burning heater or appliance, a fireplace, or an attached garage.
There are no carbon monoxide detectors on the lower or upper level.
The fireplace did not have an accessible shut off valve above the floor. A qualified contractor should evaluate and install as necessary.
An outlet did not provide Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection. Although GFCI protection of circuits may not have been required at the time in which this home was built, safe building practices have improved with the passage of time and building standards have changed to reflect current understanding. The inspector recommends updating the existing electrical circuits to include GFCI protection. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
The door had a damaged or missing doorstop. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
The sink drain line was clogged or drains slowly. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
The shower diverter did not divert all of the water to the shower and a stream of water passed though bathtub spout when the shower was on. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
The property water supply pressure measured at the exterior faucet or laundry appliance hose bib. Property water supply pressure exceeded the 80 pounds per square inch (PSI) limit considered the maximum allowable by generally accepted current standards. Excessively high water pressure can stress connections in the plumbing system and appliances is likely to cause leaks.
A qualified contractor should install a pressure regulator or evaluate and repair or replace one as necessary.
The gas supply line lacked a sediment or drip leg. This condition could allow small particles in the gas supply to enter the mechanical. A qualified contractor should evaluate then repair or replace as advised.
The water heating equipment was rusted/corroded showing signs of previously leaking. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
Based on the age of the heating system it is recommended that it be cleaned and serviced and certified (if possible) by an HVAC professional.
Due to the year of manufacture, the heating system is assumed to be near the end of its expected service life. Regular maintenance and monitoring of its condition is recommended. Budgeting for repairs and future replacement is recommended. A qualified contractor should evaluate to clean, service/repair/replace as necessary, and certify the unit if possible.

Based on the age of the cooling system it is recommended that it be cleaned and serviced and certified (if possible) by an HVAC professional.
The air-conditioner refrigerant suction line (large, insulated) has damaged or missing insulation in areas. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair/replace as necessary.
The cooling system turned on but did not operate as expected by producing adequate conditioned cooled air. An ambient air test was performed to determine if the difference in temperatures of the supply and return air was between 14 degrees and 22 degrees. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair/replace as necessary.
Signs of leaking, corrosion, or rusting were present at the visible refrigerant lines connected to the evaporative coil. Leaking from this location may possibly have a compounded effect on the components beneath it which typically includes the furnace heat exchanger. Delays or failure to correct this issue may cause extended damage. Recommend a qualified contractor evaluate and repair or replace as needed.
The basement insulation was damaged. A qualified contractor should evaluate and repair or replace as necessary.
