Area of Concern Sample Clauses

Area of Concern. Separation of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and steps. Standard: So long as ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and steps do not separate an average of more than one (1) inch from the building, settling, heaving, and separation of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and steps is to be expected. Developer or Initial Purchaser must immediately seal cracks appearing with a waterproof substance.

Area of Concern. Faucet or valve leak. Standard: Faucets or valves should not leak because of defects in either material or workmanship. Leakage caused by worn washers and/or seals is the responsibility of the Initial Purchaser.

Area of Concern. Warped exterior doors. Standard: Exterior doors are subject to a great deal of stress due to the extreme difference in temperature from inside to outside and some warping is to be expected. However, the doors should remain operable and weather resistant and should not warp to exceed the National Woodwork Manufacturer’s Association Standards (1/4 inch).

Area of Concern. Infiltration of air, dirt and dust around windows and doors. Standard: Weather stripping has been properly installed around the exterior doors of the living area and the windows, but even with the weather stripping, some infiltration of air, dirt and dust is normally noticeable. It may still feel like there is air flow around your windows, but that is primarily due to the loss of heat at the coldest points in the exterior envelope and the movement of air as it cools.

Area of Concern. Leakage of any kind from piping. Standard: No leaks of any kind should exist in any soil, waste, vent, or water pipe except where leakage is caused by flooded or inoperative septic system. Condensation on piping does not constitute leakage.

Area of Concern. Exterior paint, stain, or varnish peels, deteriorates, or fades. Standard: Exterior paint and stain shall be installed according to manufacturer’s specifications and should not peel or deteriorate during the Warranty Period. Fading is to be expected and the degree is dependent upon the climatic conditions. Varnish, lacquer, or sealed stain on exterior surfaces will deteriorate rapidly and is not covered by the Warranty.
