Home Inspection Checklist of Defects that Result from Aging Despite a homeowner’s best efforts to maintain their home, there is no way to stop the effects of aging. Everything built into a home comes with an expiration date, from roof coverings to water heaters, air conditioning systems to furnaces. Hiring a certified home inspector before you purchase a home is an important step in understanding the age of systems and what you might expect in replacement and repair costs down the road. Three systems that are subject to age-related damage are roof covering materials, HVAC equipment, and water heaters. Your home inspector, when possible, will include the age of these components in a home inspection report, allowing you to make an informed decision on your purchase.
