Re: Unconventional HVAC installation
Thanks Pierre! I really appreciate the kind words. I really am trying to do the right thing. I remember the first couple of posts you made after first becomming an inspector. I could tell you were also strugling with your new perspective and position in the industry.
Every aspect of the electrical industry has room for improvement, especially the inspection aspect. I have been impressed with the genuine concern for making things better by my local IAEI chapter and within my department as well. But the reality is that once a compromise can't be reached, the result is usually in favor of the inspector - right or wrong.
I am one of the first in my area to actually reference code sections on my inspection cards. I make myself much more accessible for contact and communicate with contractors and electricians as compared to many others. Our director is very contractor friendly, however I have heard on more than one occasion, "you don't have to discuss yuor decision nor do you have to explain yourself. Tell the electrician what you want or don't want, and they will have to deal with it."
