The Live Remote Inspection (LRI) program currently focuses on re-inspections. If a failed inspection is eligible for remote re-inspection, the certified inspector will note this on the inspection report and provide instructions for scheduling the remote re-inspection. Remote inspections are strictly voluntary.

• Live Remote re-inspection is at the discretion of the inspector when the non-compliant item is minor and not life safety.
• Live Remote re-inspections shall be performed by the same inspector that conducted the original inspection.
• Live Remote re-inspections must take place no later than 10 business days from the original inspection.
• NO Electrical except rooftop PV systems or HVAC mechanical changeouts.
• NO Fuel Gas or Ventilation of appliances.
• NO inspections to be deemed Life Safety Inspections.

1. Check your inspection report for eligibility and scheduling instructions.
2. Contact the inspector as indicated to arrange your remote re-inspection time.
3. Follow the requirements and preparation guidelines below for a smooth inspection experience.

To participate in a remote inspection, customers will need:

• A smart device with a working camera.
• Reliable 4G or higher internet connection at the inspection site.
• Access to specific tools and materials needed for the inspection, such as permits, plans, a GFCI tester, a flashlight, a tape measure, etc.

Please follow these steps to ensure a successful remote inspection:

1. Check Your Connection: Confirm a stable 4G or higher internet connection. If the LRI cannot be accomplished, a traditional inspection will be scheduled as soon as possible.
2. Prepare Your Device: Ensure your camera works and test it beforehand.
3. Gather Required Documents and Tools: Bring your permit, plans and any relevant tools (such as a level, tape measure or flashlight).
4. Set Up Your Inspection Area: Clear any obstructions, minimize background noise and set your device to 'Do Not Disturb.'
5. Be Ready to Show the Location: Prepare to start at the road or in front of the job site and proceed to the posted permit location to visually see the permit. In cases where a permit placard is not posted, the front of the structure and posted property address numbers shall be visually shown.
    

Note: The inspector may end the inspection at any time due to a poor connection or the permit holder not performing according to the inspector’s instructions.
