Were you there to inspect the boiler, or were you there inspecting another item?
Was there an electrical permit on this inspection?

I was there to inspect everything as a private inspector, not as a code enforcement official. In addition it is not in the area where I work as a code inspector.

The report that I give to my client is a private report and I cannot share any of the information with other parties so I can't call up the code official who I know pretty well and tell him either. It is not my place. It is in a larger city that definitely would have required a permit for this type of work.

You're a man of many hats. Electrician, code inspector, home inspector. That's a busy life. Probably interesting, though.

Yeah, too many. I am an inspector first and foremost, both private and code. Since I don't work full time for the municipalities that I work in, I cannot earn a living at it. The private inspection part of this has been the driving force for the past 8 years and my main source of income.

I started doing electrical work again last year because of the downturn in the real estate market. The electrical work is an income filler for what I am losing in the current market conditions.

My truck is a mess as a result.

Bravo to you. I applaud your initiative. You're the kind of man I like. You're on plan C to make your living, and I'd hazard a guess that you have plans D, E, and F in the works, just in case.
 
Wow! How did you know it was a boiler from the pix? I see a blower and what looks like electric elements... to me looks like forced air... is there a water coil in the cabinet?
