Plumbing Performance Plan Checklist
This Plumbing Performance Plan is a comprehensive checklist for assessing residential plumbing systems. Inspect main shutoff location and tagging, measure water pressure and quote PRV if needed, and record piping types (PEX, copper, CPVC, steel, polybutylene). Evaluate water conditioning and test chlorine, pH, and hardness. Document water heater details including energy source, safety components (sediment trap, gas shutoff, flue, wiring), capacity, TPR valve, stand, earthquake strapping, drain pan, expansion tank, recirculation, temperature, and maintenance history. Review drain and vent systems, sewer cleanouts, scopes, materials, slope, and backwater valves. Check pumps (sewage ejector and sump), laundry, kitchen, bar sinks, dishwashers, disposers, icemakers, and all bathroom fixtures. Include exterior hose faucets/bibbs, crawlspace/slab/basement access, and safety devices (CO2 detectors, smoke alarms, leak protection).

LIMA FAC Residential Preventive Maintenance Checklist
Comprehensive residential preventive maintenance checklist covering life safety and building systems. Inspect smoke and CO alarms, fire extinguishers, and expiration dates. Verify electrical safety including GFCI protection, grounding resistivity, and fixtures. Review plumbing components such as pumps, heaters, shut off valves, flexible hoses, and fittings. Assess residential safety features including rail and handrail heights, window latching, and swimming pool barriers, rescue equipment, and depth markings. Check gas systems for cylinder placement, anchoring, clearances, regulators with relief, shut off valves, and water heater venting. Confirm water heater TPR valves. Evaluate AC units in key rooms. Conclude with technician sign off and recommendations.

Pre-Construction Plumbing and Gas Audit
Evaluate site readiness for plumbing and gas before construction. This checklist guides inspectors through toilets, water meters and HWU, hot and cold water services, drainage and bucket traps, gas supply via mains or bottles, pipe sizes, gas meter condition and pressure, grease trap capacity and access, and fire sprinklers. Record locations, dimensions, distances, and conditions; capture photos and sketches; note access constraints and required upgrades to ensure compliance and smooth fit-out.

Comprehensive Home Inspection Checklist
This Home Inspection Checklist guides a thorough visual assessment of a residential property. Inspect grounds and drainage, exterior structures, siding and finishes, windows and doors, roof, soffits, fascia, and chimneys. Review attic insulation and ventilation, interior rooms, kitchen fixtures and appliances, bathrooms and tiling, and safety features like smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. Evaluate basement and crawl space conditions, structural elements, plumbing systems and water heater, electrical service and wiring, and heating and cooling systems. Record observations, note issues, and finalize with comments and inspector signature to produce a professional report.
