Warren inspection prep checklist

Pass the first time

• Working smoke alarm in each bedroom, outside each sleeping area and on every level
• Carbon monoxide alarm on each level with bedrooms and near fuel-burning appliances
• Fire extinguisher in the kitchen
• Every bedroom has a second way out (egress window or door) that opens easily
• Clear exits with nothing blocking stairs or halls
• House number visible from the street
• Stair handrails and deck guardrails secure
• GFCI outlets near water (kitchen, bath, outdoors)
• Heating system and chimney recently serviced
• Emergency contact and registration card posted inside
• Septic/wastewater in working order

This is general guidance, not a code determination. Your local code officer decides.
