Funny this came up in the discussion today. I came from outside and went in the basement to get my laundry. Both washer and dryer stopped. That stupid MF GFI went off and I didn't know it. I reset it, but now my laundry is going to be a little late and I have to make another trip to the basement. The inspector made me install a GFI for the washer and dryer.
Must be a gas dryer, I've never used on a 200v circuit for an electric dryer, they're not subject to water exposure.

I know, but in our city, they make me get an inspection every time I rent a unit out. This clown came down and said I have to have GFI"s on the washer and dryer outlets. I would have fought it, but money was running out because I had two units empty at the same time and was in a hurry to rent them out. Even the electrician that came to change the outlets asked WTF was that guy thinking when he wrote the violation? He said you don't use GFI's on washers and dryers.
Inspections every time? What kind of a commiecrat paradise do you live in. You should have at least made him show you that requirement in the building code.

Yeah, I know. But hindsight.......
It's terrible here. All Democrats of course. If I could have seen into the future, I would have never bought this place.
Yep, every time a new tenant moves in, I can't rent the place until it's inspected. I have to get down to city hall to fill out an application for inspection, pay them $225.00, make an appointment with the company that does the inspection, and then take a day off of work to accommodate him.
No matter how many times a unit has been inspected, the next inspector always finds something else wrong. So then I have to hire somebody that's registered with the city, wait for them to come down and fix the violation, and then take another day off of work for the re-inspection.
After they finally pass it, I then have to get a tenant. But I have to get one within 30 days. If I don't, they make me start the process all over again and of course, it would cost me another $225.00 plus all the time off of work.
Democrats are Commies in disguise.
hope you passing that cost off to the tenants
I try to, but there is only so much you can charge for rent in a city like this. During the housing bubble, every lowlife from the inner-city projects moved here and destroyed the place. Even though the banks kicked them out and back into the projects, it's like after a tornado hits and no money to rebuild.
