Description: What exactly constitutes a reportable deficiency? This episode explores the specific conditions that Standards of Practice require inspectors to identify and report. Learn the distinctions between systems that are "not functioning properly," "significantly deficient," "unsafe," and "near the end of service life." We examine real-world examples ranging from obvious major deficiencies to subtle conditions that require professional judgment. Discover how to make consistent, defensible decisions about what to report and what language to use when reporting it. Understanding these conditions is essential for serving clients effectively while maintaining compliance with professional standards and managing inspector liability. This knowledge transforms you from simply observing conditions to making informed professional assessments.
