Inspections we cover

Standby generator installations including concrete pad, generator placement and clearances, transfer switch, electrical connections, fuel line routing, and safety compliance. All captured in one guided video walkthrough.

Post-storm demand

After a hurricane, generator installations spike. Homeowners who went without power for days want backup. But the building department is already buried processing storm damage permits. Virtual inspections let you install and close the permit while the county is processing a months-long backlog.

Pre-season advantage

Establish your Inspektr account before hurricane season. Train your techs on the guided video process during routine installs. When demand spikes, you are ready to keep pace without depending on county inspector availability.
