Which of the following observations is an appropriate way to describe the condition of a waste pipe?
  1. Appears functional
  2. Should be copper
  3. Suggest replacing with brass pipes
  4. Recommend new owners replace waste pipe
Explanation
Answer: A - An appropriate way to describe the condition of a waste pipe is that it appears functional. You do not want to say it "is" functional because there may be a hidden defect. While it is appropriate to describe the material of a waste pipe, inspectors should not recommend replacing existing pipe for a specific type of material unless it is the only alternative. In this scenario, clients have multiple options when it comes to types of waste pipes.
