Default If you had roofing work done:

We’re not talking about finding a “HVAC problem”. We’re talking about
finding a life threatening hazardous situation. According to your
logic if the furnace or water heater vent doesn’t have a bucket where
it enters the roof then the roofer shouldn’t be responsible for just
roofing around it like the previous roofer did, or I shouldn’t be
responsible if I shove your ninety year old grandmother when she gets
in front of me on line even if she does drop dead of a heart attack.
As for knowing if the problem existed before or not, it is part of the
preliminary work site inspection to look UNDER the roof as well as
over it; and yes life is a bitch, and then you die.


I see I struck a nerve about being irresponsible. A _responsible_ homeowner
would have at least 1 CO detector, a lot of homeowner's have two CO
detectors. One shouldn't have to wait for a someone to tell you, the
symptoms you have are from CO, then try to blame a contractor, which has
nothing to do with it. That is irresponsibility at it's finest.
