Document a Truslow Ave home's electrification readiness

Before a heat pump or solar array can land on this home, someone must document what the panel and gas appliances actually are -- nobody on this block has that one-page picture yet. Standard: Building electrification-retrofit readiness survey — heat-pump readiness (existing heating/water fuel + system + envelope/ducting), electrical panel/service capacity observation (service amperage, spare breaker slots, obvious constraints — documentation only, no stamped load calc, no panel work), and insulation/air-sealing baseline; ASHRAE Level 1 practice + LBC Energy petal + NEC panel observation. Observation/documentation only, routes to a licensed electrician / mechanical contractor / energy pro; SDG 7.3/13.2. Proof: panel-label + nameplate photo set + completed readiness checklist + GPS Method (Electrification retrofit readiness survey (ASHRAE Level 1 practice + LBC Energy petal; NEC panel observation only — documentation, not a load calc), ~60-120 min): 1. Confirm the address + scope with the owner/occupant and arrange access to the mechanical room, electrical panel, and attic/crawl. Observe-and-document only — no panel or HVAC work. 2. Inventory existing space + water heating: fuel (gas/electric/oil/propane), system type + age, ducted vs. ductless suitability, and any combustion appliance present (for later decommission planning by a pro). 3. Photograph the electrical panel label: main service amperage, panel make, and count of used vs. spare breaker slots; note obvious constraints (full panel, subpanels, aluminum branch wiring) — as inputs for a licensed electrician's load calc, NOT a load calc yourself. 4. Record the envelope/insulation baseline: attic/wall/floor insulation presence + approximate R-level where visible, and obvious air-leakage points; use IR imaging if available. 5. Assemble a heat-pump readiness summary: what a conversion would likely require (panel capacity, dedicated circuit, ducting/ductless, envelope improvements) as a ranked readiness list — framed as inputs for licensed pros, not a design. 6. Enter photos, GPS/address, the inventory, panel observations, insulation baseline, and the ranked readiness list; sign. Route panel/service and combustion-decommission questions to licensed pros. Equipment: tablet/clipboard with the readiness checklist, camera, tape measure, flashlight (panel/attic/crawl), note on existing HVAC + water-heating fuel and age, thermal/IR camera (optional, insulation scope) Done when: Existing heating/water-heating fuel + system type + age inventoried with photos; Electrical panel service amperage + used/spare breaker slots photographed and recorded (observation, not a load calc); Insulation/air-sealing baseline recorded (R-levels where visible); Ranked heat-pump readiness list produced as inputs for licensed pros

$80 proposed

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash. You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

panel-label + nameplate photo set + completed readiness checklist + GPS

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 60–120 minutes. Method of record: Electrification retrofit readiness survey (ASHRAE Level 1 practice + LBC Energy petal; NEC panel observation only — documentation, not a load calc)

Bring

• tablet/clipboard with the readiness checklist
• camera
• tape measure
• flashlight (panel/attic/crawl)
• note on existing HVAC + water-heating fuel and age
• thermal/IR camera (optional, insulation scope)

Steps

1. 1. Confirm the address + scope with the owner/occupant and arrange access to the mechanical room, electrical panel, and attic/crawl. Observe-and-document only — no panel or HVAC work.
2. 2. Inventory existing space + water heating: fuel (gas/electric/oil/propane), system type + age, ducted vs. ductless suitability, and any combustion appliance present (for later decommission planning by a pro).
3. 3. Photograph the electrical panel label: main service amperage, panel make, and count of used vs. spare breaker slots; note obvious constraints (full panel, subpanels, aluminum branch wiring) — as inputs for a licensed electrician's load calc, NOT a load calc yourself.
4. 4. Record the envelope/insulation baseline: attic/wall/floor insulation presence + approximate R-level where visible, and obvious air-leakage points; use IR imaging if available.
5. 5. Assemble a heat-pump readiness summary: what a conversion would likely require (panel capacity, dedicated circuit, ducting/ductless, envelope improvements) as a ranked readiness list — framed as inputs for licensed pros, not a design.
6. 6. Enter photos, GPS/address, the inventory, panel observations, insulation baseline, and the ranked readiness list; sign. Route panel/service and combustion-decommission questions to licensed pros.

If it does not match the plan

• Any live-panel hazard, exposed conductors, scorching, or double-tapped/overheated breakers -> STOP: do not open or probe further; photograph the closed panel/label only and route to a licensed electrician (NEC).
• Combustion appliance suspected of backdrafting or improper venting -> flag for a licensed mechanical contractor; do not test-fire or decommission (CO risk).
• Panel appears full / service undersized for electrification -> flag as a service-upgrade input; the electrician performs the load calc and any upgrade, not the agent.
• Suspected asbestos (old duct/pipe insulation) or vermiculite in the attic -> do not disturb; flag and stop; route to a licensed abatement pro.

What counts as done

• Existing heating/water-heating fuel + system type + age inventoried with photos
• Electrical panel service amperage + used/spare breaker slots photographed and recorded (observation, not a load calc)
• Insulation/air-sealing baseline recorded (R-levels where visible)
• Ranked heat-pump readiness list produced as inputs for licensed pros

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
