- Drain/waste/vent system: pipe material, cleanout locations, drain flow test results, visible sags or offsets, and vent termination condition at the roof.

- Water heater evaluation: fuel type, tank size, age, temperature setting, relief valve condition, venting (atmospheric vs. power vent), and sediment indicators.

Common questions
- Can I save this Plumbing Inspection Report for re-inspections and audits?
- Yes. With an account, save it so future inspections can compare findings and close out outstanding items.
- Can I export this Plumbing Inspection Report as a formal PDF record?
- Yes. Download a clean PDF ready to share with clients or keep in your job files.
- What should a buyer expect from a plumbing inspection report?
- A clear picture of every plumbing system in the property: supply pipe material and condition, drain function, water heater age, and a cost estimate for anything that needs attention.
- Do I test water pressure during an inspection?
- When pressure testing is within the inspection scope and can be done safely, record the gauge location, method, conditions, and reading. Compare it with the adopted plumbing requirements, equipment limits, and property-specific baseline, then recommend qualified follow-up for an out-of-range result.
- How does an inspection report help the customer?
- It gives the customer a dated record of the conditions observed, supporting photos, recommended follow-up, and the inspector's sign-off. It should distinguish observations from work that still needs separate approval.
- What should I review before using the completed Plumbing Inspection Report?
- Review the parties, job or property details, dates, amounts, notes, and signatures entered in the Plumbing Inspection Report. Confirm that the PDF matches the underlying job or agreement and any legal, tax, technical, filing, or notice requirements that apply to the location.
