C� <br />December 21, 1983 <br />Ms. Mary Jo Hoffman <br />735 Pine Street <br />Everett, Washinyton 98201 <br />SUBJECT: 4112 HOYT <br />EVERET? WA <br />Dear Ms. Hoffman: <br />i <br />QTY OF <br />everett <br />cirr�uu . n�-�var <br />CV[RETi. Y/R5111NGiON <br />sn:oi <br />INSPEGiION �E�FliTM[NT <br />At your request I am submitting this report of an inspection I made of the <br />residence located at 4172 Hoyt Avenue, Everett, on December 12, 7983. <br />On December 5, 1983 I received a phone call from Gary Ilunnadda of the <br />Snohomish County Environmental Health Department asking if I would inspect <br />the structure at 4112 Noyt. <br />On December 12th I performed the insaection and noted that there were no <br />vents in the attic space. There was a window in the attic and it was <br />closed. If the window were opened it would allow birds to fly into the <br />s':ructure and nest, also it would expose the attic to the elements such <br />a: snow and rain. Opening the window wculd not suffice for ventilation of <br />the attic since there is no other vent in the attic to provide cross <br />ventilal:ion necessary to eliminate condensation. <br />During the inspection I noted a great deal of condensation in the hnbitable <br />areas of the house indicating a lack of ventilation in the habitable areas <br />of the residence. <br />Vent�lation of a structure is necessary to prevent condensation which in turn <br />would prevent one cause of wood rot ofi structural members and deterioration <br />of electrical systems. <br />Should you have any questions regarding this inspection please feel free <br />to call me at 259-8745. <br />Yours truly, <br />L. N. Callahan <br />Building Director <br />� " i <br />aY I;,'.,! •.,,,. l l.; �--,r <br />Marian G. Dent, Housing Inspector <br />
