Question

1. you arrive at the house ten minutes early. you see it is unoccupied, and has a note on the door from a property management company that it has been winterized. what is your biggest concern? 1

○ the inspection will take longer because more of the house is visible
○ the furnace cannot be tested
○ the a/c cannot be tested
○ the plumbing cannot be tested
○ the electric panel cover cannot be removed

Explanation:

When a house is winterized, a key part of the process is to protect the plumbing from freezing, often by draining water from the plumbing system or using antifreeze. So, the plumbing cannot be tested (as there's no water in the system to check for proper function, leaks, etc.). The furnace is typically still operable in winterized homes (to some extent for occasional checks or to maintain a minimum temperature), A/C testing isn't a concern in winter, the inspection time related to visibility is not a primary concern, and the electric panel cover removal isn't related to winterization.

Answer:

The plumbing cannot be tested
