Dear Sample Inspection Client ,

At your request, a visual inspection of the above referenced property was conducted on 07/30/2012. An earnest effort
was made on your behalf to discover all visible defects, however, in the event of an oversight, maximum liability must be
limited to the fee paid. The following is an opinion report, reflecting the the visual conditions of the property at the time
of the inspection only. Hidden or concealed defects cannot be included in this report. No warranty is either expressed or
implied. This report is not an insurance policy, nor a warranty service.

IMPORTANT: The Summary is not the entire report. The complete report may include additional information of
concern to the client. It is recommended that the client read the complete report. The entire Inspection Report, including
the Standards of Practice, limitations and scope of Inspection, and Pre-Inspection Agreement must be carefully read to
fully assess the findings of the inspection. This list is not intended to determine which items may need to be addressed
per the contractual requirements of the sale of the property. Any areas of uncertainty regarding the contract should be
clarified by consulting an attorney or real estate agent.

PLEASE NOTE: Some items noted within the summary may have been considered in the pricing and/or disclosure of
this building structure/property. Please realize that my attempts are to make you aware of what I found during the
inspection, not necessarily what should or should not be included in the negotiation process.

It is strongly recommended that you have appropriate licensed contractors evaluate each concern further and the entire
system for additional concerns that may be outside our area of expertise or the scope of our inspection BEFORE the close
of escrow. Please call our office for any clarifications or further questions. Thank you for selecting our company to do
your property inspection. If you have any questions regarding the inspection report or the property, please feel free to

SUMMARY 2: REPAIR ITEMS / TYPICAL GENERAL MAINTENANCE (GREEN): The repair of these items is
typical for general building maintenance and will need to be addressed, but do not cause any immediate concern. These
suggestions will prolong the building's integrity and longevity. Other minor items are also noted in the report and should
receive eventual attention, but none of them affect the habitability of the property and their correction is typically
considered the responsibility of the purchaser.

EXTERIOR: GROUNDS & IMPROVEMENTS
     Driveway
     Driveway Condition:
     1. The cracks in the driveway need to be sealed to prevent further damage. The freeze-thaw cycle may cause
     differential settlement and enlarge existing cracks.[upper right]
     Landscaping
     Shrubbery:
     2. Bushes and shrubs need to be trimmed away from the structure at least 2 inches. This space is needed to
     prevent direct access to the structure by insects and to keep the bushes from damaging the siding. Shrubbery is
     overgrown. The shrubbery should be cut back to allow additional air circulation. Climbing plants.
EXTERIOR, WINDOWS & STRUCTURES
     Exterior Cladding
     Stucco Condition:
     3. Normal settling cracks noted. Patching these cracks is a cosmetic issue and their repair is part of the normal
     home maintenance for traditional stucco systems.[west side of the home] Repairs are needed = Contact a stucco
     professional for further evaluation/ repair.[rear of the home]
     Stone Condition:
     4. Ratings: Repair[broken and loose stone around the garage]
     Patio
     Lighting:
     5. The light did not respond to the switch (x1) = Check the light bulb first, then the fixture and circuit.
ROOF & ATTIC
     General Roof
     Shingle(s) Condition:
     6. Conditions: tearing[top of the ridge]
     Roof Drainage
     Roof Gutter System Conditions:
     7. Installation of downspout extensions would help carry the water further away from the foundation. Run-off
     water needs to flow away from the side of the house at least 6 feet. This will allow the run-off to get far enough
     away to not interfere with the foundation.
HEATING / FIREPLACE
     Heating Unit #1
     Filter Condition:
     8. Replacement is recommended; the filter is not functioning as intended. There is no filter installed. The air
     conditioning evaporator coil may be partially blocked by dirt that accumulated on the underside of the coil.
     When wetted by the condensate, the mat becomes mud which blocks the airflow. Repairs are needed to prevent
     damage to the compressor.

     Closet Storage:
     10. There is no closet in this room.
     Windows:
     11. Dual pane window(s) condition is Good. Window screen is not installed (x1).


SUMMARY 3: FOR YOUR INFORMATION (FYI) / EDUCATION (BLUE): These items are specificic notations
and helpful hints and suggestions to help you maintain the building investment. I have tried to include information to be
used for educational purposes. I have also included general education throughout the body of the main report.

EXTERIOR: GROUNDS & IMPROVEMENTS
      Topography
      Roof Drainage:
      1. Gutter extensions should be installed to move water run-off away from foundation.
EXTERIOR, WINDOWS & STRUCTURES
      Exterior Windows:
      Caulking Condition:
      2. All wood, siding and trim, joints should be well sealed to prevent moisture intrusion and damage.
      Wood-to-wood joints at the windows and trim areas should also be monitored and sealed as necessary. Monitor
      and maintain areas for proper caulk coverage. Periodically re-caulk as necessary.
PLUMBING SYSTEM
      Water Heater #1
      Lifespan:
      3. According to the industry experts, the average water heater life in the U.S. is 8 to 12 years. This unit is
      performing within it's designed projected lifespan. It is impossible to tell whether the unit will perform for
      another day, month, or decade. When a unit fails it will usually either stop heating, or it will leak water.
KITCHEN
      Kitchen
      Caulking Water Contact Areas:
      4. Some caulking in water contact areas is needed.
UTILITY/LAUNDRY
      Utility/Laundry
      Drip Pan:
      5. The installation of an emergency drip pan is recommended for this installation.
      Exhaust Fan:
      6. This laundry has no ventilation = Recommend adding to lower the humidity in the room.

     GFCI Protection:
     7. GFCI outlet is installed and appears to be working as designed.[main reset]
     Tub/Shower Walls and/or Surround:
     8. It is recommended that the wall to wall caulking joints be well maintained with fresh caulking. Recaulking
     these areas is part of the every two year normal maintenance needed to ensure the prevention of moisture entry
     into the system.

                                                     Report Terminology Definitions:
ADEQUATE/FUNCTION
AL:
              A component that is performing its intended function at the time of the inspection, with no visible evidence of
              major problems. There may be signs of normal deterioration. Periodic maintenance may still be needed for
              continued satisfactory operation.
IMPROVEMENTS/FYI
              Other details provided for your information or discretionary improvements that are not essential repairs but
              represent logical, long-term upgrades to the building structure
              .
MAJOR REPAIR:
              Deficiencies are considered a major repair either because: 1) correction is likely to be costly; or 2) the nature of
              the deficiency is such that failure to make corrections will result in significant short or long-term damage to the
              building. Major Repair means that the issue is important, whether costly or not.
REPAIR
              These are repairs that, in the opinion of the inspector, are of lesser importance and urgency. As the property
              owner, you might postpone some of these items until some more convenient time. Other items need more prompt
              attention (buyers and sellers often have different perspectives on this issue). This may also include common
              maintenance items.
SAFETY CONCERN:
              A real or potential threat to the health or safety of the occupants. Correction of these conditions should not be
              postponed regardless of the cost to repair.

INVESTIGATE
FURTHER
                       There was insufficient information during the inspection to determine the need for repairs. These conditions
                       warrant further evaluation, either by monitoring over a period of time or by investigation by a trade specialist.
                       This includes conditions that may require destructive investigation, engineering, or evaluation beyond the scope of
                       a visual inspection. Some problems are only fully revealed under conditions that may not be present during a
                       one-time visit.
LOCATIONS:
                       The following location descriptions may be used to identify where the room is located, or where the condition
                       was found. Right Rear, Right Front, Left Rear, and Left Front may be used in the report and they are relative to
                       viewing the building from the front. Other location directions will include North, South, East, and West.
                       Condition locations within rooms will either be identified from the room's point of entry or with compass
                       directionals.
PLEASE NOTE:
                       The component evaluations are not a guarantee or warranty of future performance. It is only an
                       evaluation of how the component was working or performing when it was evaluated. Home & building
                       warranties can be purchased separately from other companies to protect you when component failure
                       occurs. Also, it should be understood that we are not allowed to move any furniture, pictures, or
                       possessions.
Report Limitations: This report is intended only as a general guide to help the client make his own evaluation of the overall
condition of the home and is not intended to reflect the value of the premises, nor make any representation as to the advisability of
purchase. The report expresses the personal opinions of the inspector, based upon his visual impressions of the conditions that
existed at the time of the inspection only. The inspection and report are not intended to be technically exhaustive, or to imply that
every component was inspected, or that every possible defect was discovered. No disassembly of equipment, opening of walls,
moving of furniture, appliances or stored items, or excavation was performed. All components and conditions which by the nature of
their location are concealed, camouflaged, or difficult to inspect are excluded from the report.

Systems and conditions which are not within the scope of the building inspection include, but are not limited to: formaldehyde, lead
paint, asbestos, toxic or flammable materials, and other environmental hazards; pest infestation, playground equipment, efficiency
measurement of insulation or heating and cooling equipment, internal or underground drainage or plumbing, any systems which are
shut down or otherwise secured; water wells (water quality and quantity); zoning ordinances; intercoms; security systems; heat
sensors; cosmetics; or building code conformity. Any general comments about these systems and conditions are informational only
and do not represent an inspection.

The inspection report should not be construed as a compliance inspection of any governmental or nongovernmental codes or
regulations. The report is not intended to be a warranty or guarantee of the present or future adequacy or performance of the
structure, its systems, or their component parts. This report does not constitute any express or implied warranty of merchantability or
fitness for use regarding the condition of the property, and it should not be relied upon as such. Any opinions expressed regarding
adequacy, capacity, or expected life of components are general estimates based on information about similar components and
occasional wide variations are to be expected between such estimates and actual experience.

We certify that our inspectors have no interest, present or contemplated, in this property or its improvement and no involvement with
tradespeople or benefits derived from any sales or improvements. To the best of our knowledge and belief, all statements and
information in this report are true and correct.

Should any disagreement or dispute arise as a result of this inspection or report, it shall be decided by arbitration and shall be
submitted for binding, non-appealable arbitration to the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Construction Industry
Arbitration Rules then obtaining, unless the parties mutually agree otherwise. In the event of a claim, the Client will allow the
Inspection Company to inspect the claim prior to any repairs or waive the right to make the claim. Client agrees not to disturb or
repair or have repaired anything which may constitute evidence relating to the complaint, except in the case of an emergency.

                              EXTERIOR: GROUNDS & IMPROVEMENTS
This inspection is not intended to address or include any geological conditions or site stability information. For information concerning
these conditions, a geologist or soils engineer should be consulted. Any reference to grade is limited to only areas around the
exterior of the exposed areas of foundation or exterior walls. This inspection is visual in nature and does not attempt to determine
drainage performance of the site or the condition of any underground piping, including municipal water and sewer service piping or
septic systems. Decks and porches are often built close to the ground, where no viewing or access is possible. These areas as well
as others too low to enter, or in some other manner not accessible, are excluded from the inspection and are not addressed in the
report. We routinely recommend that inquiry be made with the seller about knowledge of any prior foundation or structural repairs.

                                                                 Topography
Lot Type:
                       Gentle slope. NOTE: If soil stability or expansive soil conditions are a concern, please consult a Soils Engineer.
Lot Conditions &
Drainage:
                 The lot appears to have adequate drainage to prevent water from ponding.
Slope Within 10 Feet of
Building:
                 The general guideline is for the grading to drop 6" in the first 10' away from the foundation. This promotes water
                 saturation away from the foundation and lessens the chance for water entry in and under the structure.
Roof Drainage:
                 Gutter extensions should be installed to move water run-off away from foundation.
                                                                   Driveway
Driveway Paving
Material:
                 Concrete.
Driveway Condition:
                 The cracks in the driveway need to be sealed to prevent further damage. The
                 freeze-thaw cycle may cause differential settlement and enlarge existing
                 cracks.[upper right]




Curb & Gutters:
                Installed.
Walkways & Stoop
Materials:
                Concrete.
Walkway Condition:
                The walkway surface material is in satisfactory condition with only normal deterioration noted.

Trees:
                       Mature tree(s) are plated too close to the building = Consider removal. Recommend trimming.
Shrubbery:
                       Bushes and shrubs need to be trimmed away from the structure at least 2 inches. This space is needed to prevent
                       direct access to the structure by insects and to keep the bushes from damaging the siding. Shrubbery is
                       overgrown. The shrubbery should be cut back to allow additional air circulation. Climbing plants.
Front Lawn:
                       Acceptable.
Back Lawn:
                       Acceptable.
It is not within the scope of this report to determine the degree of salinity or volume of any well water. Inquire with the sellers of the
property or check with the local agricultural extension service for these tests. We suggest you have the sellers instruct you as to the
operation of this system. Ongoing maintenance of damaged or clogged sprinkler heads is necessary with most sprinkler systems.

                                                           ROOF & ATTIC
The foregoing is an opinion of the general quality and condition of the roofing material. The inspector cannot and does not offer an
opinion or warranty as to whether the roof leaks or may be subject to future leakage. This report is issued in consideration of the
foregoing disclaimer. The only way to determine whether a roof is absolutely water tight is to observe it during a prolonged rainfall.
Many times, this situation is not present during the inspection.

                                                                 General Roof

Roof Gutter System:
                 Metal.
Roof Gutter System
Conditions:
                 Installation of downspout extensions would help carry the water further away from the foundation. Run-off water
                 needs to flow away from the side of the house at least 6 feet. This will allow the run-off to get far enough away to
                 not interfere with the foundation.

Ventilation Hi/Low:
                    There appears to be adequate ventilation installed. Vents are located both in the ridge area and low in the eaves
                    area.
Insulation Clear of
Sheathing:
                    There is at least 1 1/2 inches of clearance between the roof sheathing and the insulation.
Insulation Noted:
                    The attic insulation appears to be adequate and properly installed. The following type of insulation was noted in
                    the attic: Fiberglass. Loose bagged or blown in place. Cellulose. Blown in place.
Attic ventilation fan:
                    Due to the high temperatures during the summer months and conditions noted in the attic cavity, it is the
                    recommendation of the inspector that an attic fan would help reduce the attic temperatures, the temperatures in the
                    rooms below the attic, and the cooling costs.

                                             FOUNDATION/STRUCTURE
Areas hidden from view by finished walls or stored items cannot be judged and are not a part of this inspection. Minor cracks are
typical in many foundations and most do not represent a structural problem. If major cracks are present along with bowing, we
routinely recommend further evaluation be made by a qualified structural engineer. All exterior grades should allow for surface and
roof water to flow away from the foundation. All concrete floor slabs experience some degree of cracking due to shrinkage in the
drying process. In most instances floor coverings prevent recognition of cracks or settlement in all but the most severe cases. Where
carpeting and other floor coverings are installed, the materials and condition of the flooring underneath cannot be determined.
Finished or partially finished basements limit access. Moisture in basements and crawlspaces is fairly common, but evidence of
penetration should be evaluated.

                                                     ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Any electrical repairs attempted by anyone other than a licensed electrician should be approached with caution. The power to the
entire house should be turned off prior to beginning any repair efforts, no matter how trivial the repair may seen. Aluminum wiring
requires periodic inspection and maintenance by a licensed electrician. Operation of time clock motors is not verified. Inoperative
light fixtures often lack bulbs or have dead bulbs installed. Light bulbs are not changed during the inspection, due to time constraints.
 Smoke Alarms should be installed within 15 feet of all bedroom doors, and tested regularly. The electrical service refers to the wires
that run from the street or main pole and enter the house either underground or through the rooftop. The number of wires that enter
the panel determine the voltage of the service: 2 = 120 volt, 3 = 240 volt.

                  The draft hoods on the gas-fired appliances are secure, and each gas appliance appears to be drawing as expected.
Secondary Air
Adequacy:
                  Availability of secondary air for combustion and flue draft appears to be adequate; however, no calculation was
                  performed by the inspector. Secondary air is the air required in fossil fuel-fired appliances to mix with the
                  products of combustion and for removal of the products of combustion up the flue.
Blower Condition:
                  The blower assembly appears to be performing as expected.
Filter Type/Size:
                  The installed filter is a single use filter. Filters should be changed every 3-6 months.
Filter Condition:
                  Replacement is recommended; the filter is not functioning as intended. There is no filter installed. The air
                  conditioning evaporator coil may be partially blocked by dirt that accumulated on the underside of the coil. When
                  wetted by the condensate, the mat becomes mud which blocks the airflow. Repairs are needed to prevent damage
                  to the compressor.
Ducts Condition:
                  The ductwork appears to be properly installed and supported.
Does each habitable
room have a heat
source?
                  Yes.
Adequate Returns or

                  Yes.
Thermostat Location:
                  Hall wall.
Thermostat Condition:
                  The thermostat worked properly when tested.

                                  AIR CONDITIONING & VENTILATION
Air conditioning systems rely on a constant flow of air through the system to properly operate. Restricted airflow from dirty filters or
blocked coils can cause icing on the evaporator coil.

Shower pans are visually checked for leakage, but leaks often do not show except when the shower is in actual use. Determining
whether show pans, tub/showers surrounds are water tight is beyond the scope of this inspection. It is very important to maintain all
grouting and caulking in the bath areas. Very minor imperfections can allow water to get into the wall or floor areas and cause
damage. Proper ongoing maintenance will be required in the future.

                                                          LIVING SPACES
The condition of walls behind wall coverings, paneling and furnishings cannot be judged. Only the general condition of visible
portions of floors is included in this inspection. As a general rule, cosmetic deficiencies are considered normal wear and tear and are
not reported. Determining the source of odors or like conditions is not a part of this inspection. Floor covering damage or stains may
be hidden by furniture. The condition of floors underlying floor coverings is not inspected. Determining the condition of insulated
glass windows is not always possible due to temperature, weather and lighting conditions. Check with owners for further information.
 All fireplaces should be cleaned and inspected on a regular basis to make sure that no cracks have developed. Large fires in the
firebox can overheat the firebox and flue liners, sometimes resulting in internal damage.



The State of Colorado passed a new law that went into effect on July 1, 2009 concerning carbon monoxide alarms and applies to
sales, rentals, and remodels of single family and multi-family (including condominiums) residences. The law applies to dwelling units
that hve a fuel fired heater or appliance, a fireplace, or an attached garage. If any of these conditions exist, then the law applies to
sellers of dwelling units offered for sale on/after July 1, 2009; dwelling units where, on or after July 1, 2009, remodeling occurs that
requires a building permit, or dwelling units used for rental purposes that have a change of occupancy after July 1, 2009. If any of
these three events occurs, then the unit must have an operational carbon monoxide alarm installed with fifteen (15) feet of the
entrance to each room lawfully used for sleeping purposes or in a location specified by an applicable building code. This latter
requirement is overridden if the multi-family dwelling has a central alarm system and the carbon monoxide arlarm is installed within
twenty-five feet of the fuel fired heater, fireplace, or garage. In addition, in connection with rental units, the law mandates certain
actions that the unit owner must take with respect to installation and replacement of alarms and provision of batteries to assure that
the arlms are operational. If you have questions about this new law, please see website:

Many of these items will likely require further evaluation and repair by licensed tradespeople. Obtain competitive estimates for any repairs. LIVING SPACES Den/Office/Study: Carbon Monoxide: 1. Carbon Monoxide Detectors must be installed PRIOR TO CLOSING. Master Bedroom: Carbon Monoxide: 2. Carbon Monoxide Detectors must be installed PRIOR TO CLOSING. Bedroom #1: Carbon Monoxide: 3.

These suggestions will prolong the building's integrity and longevity. Other minor items are also noted in the report and should receive eventual attention, but none of them affect the habitability of the property and their correction is typically considered the responsibility of the purchaser. EXTERIOR: GROUNDS & IMPROVEMENTS Driveway Driveway Condition: 1. The cracks in the driveway need to be sealed to prevent further damage. The freeze-thaw cycle may cause differential settlement and enlarge existing cracks.[upper right] Landscaping Shrubbery: 2. Bushes and shrubs need to be trimmed away from the structure at least 2 inches. This space is needed to prevent direct access to the structure by insects and to keep the bushes from damaging the siding. Shrubbery is overgrown. The shrubbery should be cut back to allow additional air circulation. Climbing plants. EXTERIOR, WINDOWS & STRUCTURES Exterior Cladding Stucco Condition: 3. Normal settling cracks noted. Patching these cracks is a cosmetic issue and their repair is part of the normal home maintenance for traditional stucco systems.[west side of the home] Repairs are needed = Contact a stucco professional for further evaluation/ repair.[rear of the home] Stone Condition: 4. Ratings: Repair[broken and loose stone around the garage] Patio Lighting: 5. The light did not respond to the switch (x1) = Check the light bulb first, then the fixture and circuit. ROOF & ATTIC General Roof Shingle(s) Condition: 6. Conditions: tearing[top of the ridge] Roof Drainage Roof Gutter System Conditions: 7. Installation of downspout extensions would help carry the water further away from the foundation. Run-off water needs to flow away from the side of the house at least 6 feet. This will allow the run-off to get far enough away to not interfere with the foundation. HEATING / FIREPLACE Heating Unit #1 Filter Condition: 8. Replacement is recommended; the filter is not functioning as intended. There is no filter installed. The air conditioning evaporator coil may be partially blocked by dirt that accumulated on the underside of the coil. When wetted by the condensate, the mat becomes mud which blocks the airflow. Repairs are needed to prevent damage to the compressor.

SUMMARY 3: FOR YOUR INFORMATION (FYI) / EDUCATION (BLUE): These items are specificic notations and helpful hints and suggestions to help you maintain the building investment. I have tried to include information to be used for educational purposes. I have also included general education throughout the body of the main report. EXTERIOR: GROUNDS & IMPROVEMENTS Topography Roof Drainage: 1. Gutter extensions should be installed to move water run-off away from foundation.

IMPROVEMENTS/FYI Other details provided for your information or discretionary improvements that are not essential repairs but represent logical, long-term upgrades to the building structure . MAJOR REPAIR: Deficiencies are considered a major repair either because: 1) correction is likely to be costly; or 2) the nature of the deficiency is such that failure to make corrections will result in significant short or long-term damage to the building. Major Repair means that the issue is important, whether costly or not. REPAIR These are repairs that, in the opinion of the inspector, are of lesser importance and urgency. As the property owner, you might postpone some of these items until some more convenient time. Other items need more prompt attention (buyers and sellers often have different perspectives on this issue). This may also include common maintenance items. SAFETY CONCERN: A real or potential threat to the health or safety of the occupants.

    www.Windingriver.net 970-222-2104 303-774-1104 EXTERIOR: GROUNDS & IMPROVEMENTS This inspection is not intended to address or include any geological conditions or site stability information. For information concerning these conditions, a geologist or soils engineer should be consulted. Any reference to grade is limited to only areas around the exterior of the exposed areas of foundation or exterior walls. This inspection is visual in nature and does not attempt to determine drainage performance of the site or the condition of any underground piping, including municipal water and sewer service piping or septic systems. Decks and porches are often built close to the ground, where no viewing or access is possible. These areas as well as others too low to enter, or in some other manner not accessible, are excluded from the inspection and are not addressed in the report. We routinely recommend that inquiry be made with the seller about knowledge of any prior foundation or structural repairs. Topography Lot Type: Gentle slope. NOTE: If soil stability or expansive soil conditions are a concern, please consult a Soils Engineer. Lot Conditions & Drainage: The lot appears to have adequate drainage to prevent water from ponding. Slope Within 10 Feet of Building: The general guideline is for the grading to drop 6" in the first 10' away from the foundation. This promotes water saturation away from the foundation and lessens the chance for water entry in and under the structure. Roof Drainage: Gutter extensions should be installed to move water run-off away from foundation. Driveway Driveway Paving Material: Concrete. Driveway Condition: The cracks in the driveway need to be sealed to prevent further damage. The freeze-thaw cycle may cause differential settlement and enlarge existing cracks.[upper right] Curb & Gutters: Installed. Walkways & Stoop Materials: Concrete. Walkway Condition: The walkway surface material is in satisfactory condition with only normal deterioration noted. © Winding River Inspection Services, LLC Confidential - for client use only.

    www.Windingriver.net 970-222-2104 303-774-1104 FOUNDATION/STRUCTURE Areas hidden from view by finished walls or stored items cannot be judged and are not a part of this inspection. Minor cracks are typical in many foundations and most do not represent a structural problem. If major cracks are present along with bowing, we routinely recommend further evaluation be made by a qualified structural engineer. All exterior grades should allow for surface and roof water to flow away from the foundation. All concrete floor slabs experience some degree of cracking due to shrinkage in the drying process. In most instances floor coverings prevent recognition of cracks or settlement in all but the most severe cases. Where carpeting and other floor coverings are installed, the materials and condition of the flooring underneath cannot be determined. Finished or partially finished basements limit access. Moisture in basements and crawlspaces is fairly common, but evidence of penetration should be evaluated. Foundation/Structure Access There was adequate/good access to this area. Some areas are finished. The components behind the finished areas were not inspected. Foundation Grading: Fair. Type: Utility Basement - with foundation walls below grade tall enough to have living space and a finished floor. Materials: Poured in place concrete, 8 inches or more thick. Conditions Ratings: Adequate/Functional. Exterior Drainage The drainage around the perimeter of the foundation appears to have adequate ground slope to remove run-off water from the immediate area. Walls - Exterior Visible Portion The exterior view of the foundation is limited to the portions visible above grade. Only about 5% to 10% of the foundation was visible. Conditions Ratings: Adequate/Functional. Damp/Waterproofing: I did see some patches of black spray on foundation sealant, but I could not verify the complete installation.

    www.Windingriver.net 970-222-2104 303-774-1104 HEATING / FIREPLACE The heating system is one of the most important areas in the structure. Improper maintenance and/or dirty filters can cause damage to the eater and waste energy dollars. Heating Unit #1 Heating System Location: Basement. Heating System Type: A forced air furnace is installed as the primary source of heat. The furnace is a newer high efficiency type with a fan installed in the vent pipe to push the burnt flue gases up and out the flue. Fuel Source: The fuel source is natural gas. Gas Shut-Off: An easy operate hand shut-off valve is installed on the gas line. A flexible gas line is installed. Brand/Serial Number/Size: Heil. Flue Type: The flue pipe is metal. Flue Condition: During this inspection it is impossible to determine the condition of the interior of the flue. The interior of the flue may be deteriorated, but during a visual inspection we were unable to see the interior walls. Secondary air is mixed with the burnt gases through an induced draft fan. Unit Tested: Yes. Furnace Temperature output within manufacturer specifications: The actual temperature rise was within this range. Heat Exchanger Inspected: Yes. The general conditions prohibit a visual inspection of a large percentage of the heat exchanger. This is primarily due to the style and shape of the heat exchanger, but the visible portions were inspected. Heat Exchanger Inspected Via: The heat exchanger was tested by a visual inspection with the aid of a flashlight and mirrors, and no cracks or voids were noted. The heat exchanger was inspected without invasive or destructive means. Usually only 10 to 20 percent of the exchanger is visible without partial or total disassembly of the furnace. This inspection covers only the readily visible portions of the heat exchanger. Carbon Monoxide Tested: Yes. No measurable amounts of carbon monoxide were noted at the time of the test. © Winding River Inspection Services, LLC Confidential - for client use only.

    www.Windingriver.net 970-222-2104 303-774-1104 Draft Hoods/Draw: The draft hoods on the gas-fired appliances are secure, and each gas appliance appears to be drawing as expected. Secondary Air Adequacy: Availability of secondary air for combustion and flue draft appears to be adequate; however, no calculation was performed by the inspector. Secondary air is the air required in fossil fuel-fired appliances to mix with the products of combustion and for removal of the products of combustion up the flue. Blower Condition: The blower assembly appears to be performing as expected. Filter Type/Size: The installed filter is a single use filter. Filters should be changed every 3-6 months. Filter Condition: Replacement is recommended; the filter is not functioning as intended. There is no filter installed. The air conditioning evaporator coil may be partially blocked by dirt that accumulated on the underside of the coil. When wetted by the condensate, the mat becomes mud which blocks the airflow. Repairs are needed to prevent damage to the compressor. Ducts Condition: The ductwork appears to be properly installed and supported. Does each habitable room have a heat source? Yes. Adequate Returns or Undercut Doors: Yes. Thermostat Location: Hall wall. Thermostat Condition: The thermostat worked properly when tested. © Winding River Inspection Services, LLC Confidential - for client use only. Use by any unauthorized persons is prohibited.

    www.Windingriver.net 970-222-2104 303-774-1104 LIVING SPACES The condition of walls behind wall coverings, paneling and furnishings cannot be judged. Only the general condition of visible portions of floors is included in this inspection. As a general rule, cosmetic deficiencies are considered normal wear and tear and are not reported. Determining the source of odors or like conditions is not a part of this inspection. Floor covering damage or stains may be hidden by furniture. The condition of floors underlying floor coverings is not inspected. Determining the condition of insulated glass windows is not always possible due to temperature, weather and lighting conditions. Check with owners for further information. All fireplaces should be cleaned and inspected on a regular basis to make sure that no cracks have developed. Large fires in the firebox can overheat the firebox and flue liners, sometimes resulting in internal damage. The State of Colorado passed a new law that went into effect on July 1, 2009 concerning carbon monoxide alarms and applies to sales, rentals, and remodels of single family and multi-family (including condominiums) residences. The law applies to dwelling units that hve a fuel fired heater or appliance, a fireplace, or an attached garage. If any of these conditions exist, then the law applies to sellers of dwelling units offered for sale on/after July 1, 2009; dwelling units where, on or after July 1, 2009, remodeling occurs that requires a building permit, or dwelling units used for rental purposes that have a change of occupancy after July 1, 2009. If any of these three events occurs, then the unit must have an operational carbon monoxide alarm installed with fifteen (15) feet of the entrance to each room lawfully used for sleeping purposes or in a location specified by an applicable building code. This latter requirement is overridden if the multi-family dwelling has a central alarm system and the carbon monoxide arlarm is installed within twenty-five feet of the fuel fired heater, fireplace, or garage. In addition, in connection with rental units, the law mandates certain actions that the unit owner must take with respect to installation and replacement of alarms and provision of batteries to assure that the arlms are operational. If you have questions about this new law, please see website: www.cdphe.state.co.us/dc/ehs/HouseBill09FAQ.pdf Living Room: Location: Main Floor. Windows: Dual pane window(s) condition is Good.
