🚨Home Inspector Chronicles: Episode “No Eye in Safety”🚨

Here we have a textbook case of “close enough” engineering…

📸 Those photoelectric eyes (aka safety sensors) are supposed to be 6 inches off the floor to prevent the garage door from turning your toddler’s trike into modern art.
But these beauties? They’re mounted near the ceiling — perfect for detecting flying squirrels, low-flying drones, or haunted helium balloons.

💡 Remember: If your garage door’s sensors are up here ⬆️ instead of down there ⬇️, your “safety feature” just turned into a garage guillotine.

🛑 Friends don’t let friends install safety sensors like satellite dishes.

🚨Home Inspector PSA🚨
If your smoke alarm is the same color as a banana from 1993... it might be time for an upgrade. 🍌🔥

Smoke alarms should be replaced every 10 years, not passed down like family heirlooms.

If yours looks like it’s seen Y2K, the housing crash, and three Fast & Furious reboots... it’s officially a smoke charm, not an alarm.

👉 Don't let your safety rely on ancient plastic.
📅 Check the date.
🔧 Replace if outdated.
✅ Sleep better knowing your alarm isn't powered by nostalgia.

Okay. I seriously can't stress this enough... every house, and yes especially new construction, should have a sewer scope. They never removed the test coupling from the sewer line.. complete blockage...
