Well you guys have me all figured out. Because I don't work to your standards I will tear up my license and go work at McDonalds. Wait, even McDonald's is too good....I give up.

Juno's lawyers should hear about this, at least. This an attack on their product which has legal ramifications for liability in millions of installations. I would think they would want to put the SMACK down on this foolish inspector, who is citing non-related articles.

Or at least their "other" legal could get his home address and send over the Juno enforcement crew to "chat" with him.

I did not read this whole thread, but I think I have the gist of it.
The inspector turned an installation down based on he did not like something about the "listed product or a portion of the listed product.

Call/email the manufacturer, they have as much at stake here. Sometimes the inspection by the inspector may be correct. The manufacturer will then make corrections to the product. Most times the inspector is misjudging and letters from the manufacturer will help to straighten out the issue. It is a long process, but helps all in the long run.

I have contractors provide me with a letter from the manufacturer on different issues many times. The letter is sort of like insurance for me, the contractor and my company in the decision making process.




I was not on the job as has been described in this thread, but here is something to think about...

This inspector may be a creep and is just busting chops.
or
This inspector takes his job seriously and is very observant and has seen a flaw with the equipment.
The only real way to find out is to get a NRTL and/or the manufacturer involved. I have, as mentioned done this many times and you (as I have been) may be surprised at how often this process leads to a correction in manufacturing of a product.
