Excessive HVAC Condensation Found During Franklin TN Home Inspection

Condensation is often found dripping from HVAC ducts during the summer months under houses in the crawlspace. When crawlspace vents are left open, hot humid air comes in contact with the cold ducts creating this condition. Gallons of water can be generated daily which can lead to fungi and mold in the floor structure. If there is not a moisture intrusion issue under your house, it is best to keep the crawlspace vents closed year round.

Video-Insufficient Roof Bracing Found During Nashville,TN Home Inspection

Roof structures are often found being supported by garage ceiings that were not designed to carry the extra weight of the roof creating sagging and cracks in the garage ceiling as well as settlement in the roof structure. Supporting beams and or trusses are needed to be installed to carry this additional weight.
