Water heater inspector questions

All right, so we got our water heater replaced last month when the last one went kaput, but it failed inspection. I wasn't here for that inspection, so I don't know why it didn't pass (and of course, H couldn't really tell me). A new inspector is coming out tomorrow to check it out again.

What questions would you ask? Obviously, why did it fail the first time, what has been done to correct the problem, etc. but I know jack-crap about water heaters and want to be well-informed.

Thanks! Hoping to get all of this home mess taken care of :)

Re: Water heater inspector questions

  • I really don't know much about this, but I do remember the same thing happening to my parents when I was younger. Their water heater didn't pass because it wasn't set high enough off the ground.

  • I'm asking out of pure stupidity. Why are you having it inspected? Is this something that is required? I remember my parents replacing their water heater when I was a kid but don't remember them having it inspected. 
  • I honestly don't know. I think maybe this company just follows up on the work that they've done? And it's definitely high enough off the ground. That's a new(ish) rule and we had it fixed when we moved into the house. I do know that the closet area it's in has some rotting around the bottom corner, but it's in the garage.

    I do know several people that have gotten water heaters over the last couple of years and they all had them inspected, so maybe it's a new thing.
