This course focuses on noninvasive inspection of the systems and components referred to as “conventional” heating and cooling. For the purposes of this course, the training focus and learning objectives are for the thorough observation, noninvasive inspection and informative reporting requirements on permanently installed force air, gas-fired, electric-powered central heating and cooling systems, components, and air-to-air heat pumps.
The focus is not simply on the mechanicals of the heating and cooling system cabinet and equipment. Rather, this course emphasizes and expands upon the inspection routine as guided by industry standards of practice, and focuses on safety parameters, effective communication skills for client understanding, and targeting your eyes on the heating and cooling inspection as you turn into the inspection property driveway that first time.
To enhance the learning experience, the course is seasoned with inspection best practices and in-the-field perspective and experience gained over time, to review and reinforce basic home inspection requirements to meet or exceed standards/regulations and client satisfaction.

A properly built house offers protection against the weather and provides structural stability. Floors may be concrete slab, suspended wood, or steel joist systems. Walls may be framed using wood, wood structural panels, steel, structural masonry, conventional concrete, insulating concrete forms, rammed earth, or straw bales, and include openings. Types of framing that are used to construct houses include platform, balloon, and panelized framing. A roof may be constructed using traditional stick framing, prefabricated trusses, or steel components.
A home inspector must have a basic understanding of how a house is built in order to detect deviations from accepted building practices and codes.

After exploring the exterior of the home, the home inspector should examine the foundation of the residence. Since the foundation supports the weight of the entire structure; this area of the building must be constructed under strict adherence to all applicable building codes and undergo rigorous safety inspections. Foundation problems can cause plumbing leaks, squeaky and uneven floors, sticking doors and windows, and cracked walls. This course will identify the factors that affect foundation design and the types of materials and components used in foundations. In addition, this course will specify inspection items for foundation problems and indicate methods used in foundation repair and retrofitting.

Keeping a house cool during hot summer days is vital to the comfort of a house’s occupants. This may be accomplished by using one of the many types of available cooling systems, each of which uses a refrigerant or water to transfer the heat from the indoor air to the outdoors. A cooling system may be combined with a heating system or may be a separate system. These systems may be mounted in attics, closets, windows, or through exterior walls.
This course focuses on the systems that are used most frequently in today’s homes. These include central air conditioning systems, heat pumps, window and through- wall units, and evaporative coolers.

Heat energy can be transferred by conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction is the transfer of heat from one molecule to another and only happens in solid materials. Convection is the transfer of heat via a moving fluid. Radiation occurs when certain energy waves strike an object, are absorbed, and turn to heat.
There are many types of heating systems, and they all are categorized based on the source of thermal energy they use to generate heat. Sources of thermal energy include natural gas, oil, electricity, solar energy, geothermal energy, and wood. This course will exam various sources of heat and identify ways to transfer heat energy. In addition, the course will specify characteristics of various heating systems including freestanding and area heating systems.

A home inspector should recognize problems in the home that are related to insects and animal infestations, because these home invaders can weaken the structural members of the home and make it uninhabitable. In addition, home inspectors may encounter problems caused by biological contaminants (fungi) or environmental hazards. Specialized training is required to evaluate deficiencies caused by pests, fungi, and environmental hazards. Yet, a knowledgeable and alert home inspector can add value to his or her services by being able to report evidence of the presence of any of these problems. This course will identify characteristics of insects that may infest a house and list animals that may damage a house, as well as evidence of their presence. In addition, this course will list characteristics of biological contaminants and name environmental hazards that may affect a house.

Insulation has no moving parts and most of it is not visible once it is installed. Although insulation is not glamorous, it is very important. An occupant’s comfort within a home, and the cost of maintaining that comfort level, is determined by how well the habitable space of a home is insulated. Further, the integrity and condition of a home are influenced by the effectiveness of the insulating system. This course presents the basics of heat transfer and the characteristics of energy. In addition, the course discusses in detail the four components of a home insulating system: insulation, air leakage prevention, moisture control, and ventilation.

In order to examine the exterior of a home properly, the inspector must observe the grading, landscaping, walkways, driveways, and retaining walls on the property. In addition, many homes have a garage or carport to accommodate at least one car which also requires inspection. Garages are often attached to the home and may or may not have living space above them. Sometimes they are detached structures, which are inspected in the same way as the home. The first part of this course will cover the inspection of the exterior of the house and the second part discusses all aspects of a garage and carport and the important inspection points that exist for these spaces.

Heat is a form of energy that is transferred from place to place according to the laws of physics. Heat always flows from a higher temperature to a lower one. Cold is the absence of heat and cannot be created; heat can only be removed. Using these basic tenets of physics, scientists and engineers have found ways to control the movement of heat so that people can be more comfortable.
During the hot summer, heat is removed from the interior of the house and transferred to the outside environment. This is called air cooling and is discussed in another unit. In the cooler months, when we want to warm a home, heat energy is removed from flame or hot electrical resistance wires and transferred, in a controlled manner, to the inside air that is circulated throughout the house. Another way to heat a home is to reverse the air cooling process and transfer existing heat energy from the outside air to indoor circulating air.
A house can be heated using appliances that are fueled by natural gas, propane, oil, electricity, solar energy, hydronic heating, steam, wood, and biomass.

Even though pools, spas, and saunas are becoming more common in residential properties, inspecting these components is usually optional. An inspector should not agree to inspect a pool, spa, or sauna unless he or she is trained to complete such an inspection and is familiar with the local code specifications that apply to any pool or spa, whether indoors or outside.
However, there is one aspect of a pool installation that all inspectors should include in their home inspection. If the home being inspected has a pool, then the home inspector must examine the pool enclosure or barrier that prevents unauthorized entry into the pool area.
There are many elements to a pool inspection. Spas and saunas are less complicated to inspect because of their smaller size.
