“A cooling system inspection ensures your home stays comfortable and efficient, keeping you cool and stress-free during the hottest days.”

What We Inspect

Our cooling system inspections focus on key components to assess functionality and identify any issues. We inspect:

  • System Operation: Testing the cooling system using normal operating controls to ensure it operates effectively.
  • Thermostat: Checking the thermostat to confirm it controls the cooling system and functions as intended.

What We Describe

As part of our detailed report, we provide descriptions of:

  • Thermostat Location: Identifying where the cooling system’s thermostat is situated within the home.
  • Cooling Method: Specifying the type of cooling system, such as central air conditioning, ductless systems, or other methods.

What We Report

Our cooling system inspection report identifies areas in need of correction, including:

  • Non-Operational Cooling Systems: Any cooling system that fails to operate under normal controls is flagged for further attention.
  • Inaccessible Cooling Systems: If the cooling system cannot be inspected due to inaccessibility, this is clearly documented in the report.

Each report includes actionable recommendations to help homeowners, buyers, and sellers address concerns promptly.

Limitations of Cooling System Inspections

While our cooling system inspections are comprehensive, there are specific limitations based on safety and feasibility. Our inspectors do not:

  • Test cooling systems if exterior temperatures are below 65°F, as this may cause damage to the system.
  • Evaluate system capacity, efficiency, or distribution (BTU, flow, or temperature balance).
  • Inspect portable window units, through-wall units, or electronic air filters.
  • Examine coolant fluids, gases, or leakage.
  • Test advanced thermostat features like calibration, cooling anticipation, or automatic setbacks.
