SECTION 2
INSPECTION AND TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
This checklist and troubleshooting guide is provided to help you solve some of
the most common problems encountered by our tenants. For maximum benefit you should use the list as a guide for things to check after occupancy and
as a reference before calling for service. Because we have properties in every
imaginable configuration, we must cover each subject in detail. We must also
assume that you are not familiar with the items covered if we are too basic, we
apologize.
WATER SHUT OFF One of the first things you should do after move in is to
locate the water shut off valve. After a pipe burst or water issue arises, is not
the time to start the search. What you are looking for is a single faucet that
shuts off all the water in the house. The most common places to find this faucet
are in the garage, close to the water heater (NOT at the top of the heater), in
a closet, under the kitchen sink or in the utility room. Some old houses have a
bent piece of iron coming up through the floor, usually in a closet, that can be
turned to shut the water off. Try the shut off but do not be surprised if all the
water does not stop immediately. Some shut-offs on older houses will only slow
the water to a trickle but it is definitely better than a flood. Some houses have
a water cut off value at the property line and are usually in a metal box in the
ground or concrete area.
ELECTRICAL POWER PANEL Locate the panel, check to see if you have
fuses or circuit breakers. Fuse panels are common on the houses more than
10 years old. Two types of fuses are found in the fuse panel box. The electric
stove, water heater and air conditioner/heater will be serviced by cartridgetype fuses. These are held in fuse holders that resemble drawers. To check the
fuse, pull the fuse holder out of the box. Many times blown fuses will be burned
or the cartridge ruptured. Other times they will look perfectly normal and the
only way to check them is to replace the questionable fuse with a new one.
CAUTION #1 Do not pry the prongs of the fuse holder apart to release the
fuse. Simply slide the fuse out toward the open end of the holder.
CAUTION #2 When you replace the fuse holder, it must be right side up. If
you put it in upside down, the circuit will be off. The other type of fuse is the
screwin type with fuse wire visible or a red button in the cap. If the fuse wire is
broken, replace the fuse. If the button is popped, push it in.

Initial __________

847-804-8706 | www.ZTeamPM.com

SECTION 2

(continued)

All fuses must be replaced with the same size fuses as were originally installed.
Slow blow fuses should be used for circuits when fuses blow often. They are
available in both cartridge and screwin types but only from hardware and
electrical supply houses.
CIRCUIT BREAKERS We have a number of problems each year because
people think that a circuit breaker pops by moving the circuit switch to the OFF
position. This is not the case!! The circuit breaker switch moves very slightly and
unless you look closely, you may still think that it is ON. To reset, simply turn
the circuit breaker OFF and back ON again. If you are not sure, try them all.
OFF then ON.
One type of circuit breaker found in many properties is the GFI (ground fault
interrupter) circuit breaker. This circuit breaker detects the slightest voltage going to ground and cuts the power off. It is used in bathrooms, exterior plugs,
garages and some lights. Because the GFI circuit breaker is so expensive, there
is usually only one per house and all the above plugs are wired to it. If you lose
power to the plugs in one bathroom, you can bet you have lost power to all
the plugs using the GFI. The trick now is to find the circuit breaker. Most houses
have the GFI circuit breaker in one bathroom or the main circuit breaker
panel. It is usually marked with a red or yellow button and it is between the upper and lower plugs in a bathroom or outside installation. Some houses have
the GFI at an outside plug. When moisture gets into one of your plugs, the GFI
circuit breaker pops, so please make sure the covers are closed on your outside plugs during rainy weather.
NOTE The circuit breakers are ON when both rows of circuit breakers are
positioned toward the center of the panel. Run your finger down one or both
sides of the breaker panel and if you feel a slight offset, then reset that breaker.
ELECTRIC STOVE If the whole stove is off, check the fuse or circuit breaker. If
the oven will not turn on, try the broiler. If both will not turn on, check the timer.
Instructions are normally on the face of the timer but generally one of the two
clocks has a knob that will pop out if you are back to normal operation. Just
turn the set knob until it pops out. IF the stove has a regular clock for time, if
you it off then the breaker may be tripped.
SELFCLEANING OVEN (Uses heat to clean door locks)
Follow instructions printed on the oven.
DO NOT use commercial cleaners such as Easy Off or Mr. Muscle.
DO NOT put bright metal rings around stove burners in the oven for cleaning. They will turn black.
Initial __________

Page 12

CONTINUOUS CLEAN OVENS The oven cavity in a continuous clean oven


absorbs grease when heated. The only way to clean the oven is to use it. If additional cleaning is required, most manufacturers recommend wiping the oven
with a mild soap and water solution. Because the finish will not absorb large
amounts of grease, it is important that the bottom of the oven be lined with
heavy duty aluminum foil or a shallow drip pan. DO NOT use regular aluminum foil it will catch on fire.
DISHWASHER Use at least once each week. If used less, the seals dry up
and the motor may be ruined when put back into regular use.
DISPOSALS If motor buzzes, then stop turn switch off. Un-jam the disposal by turning the blade backwards with a broom handle or wrench if one is
provided. Then reset the circuit breaker on the bottom of the disposal small
red button, and turn on. If the unit turns easily by hand but not with power, call
for service: however you may want to try and un-jam the disposal several times
before calling.
FURNACES Gas and oil furnaces have an emergency shut off switch within
in sight of the furnace unit. Most have a red cover plate labeled EMERGENCY
CUT OFF or OIL BURNER EMERGENCY CUT OFF. The switch is often mistaken
for a light switch. If the furnace stops working, this switch is the first place to
check.
GAS HEAT Old gas furnaces have a pilot light that burns continuously.
The pilot light ignites the burner when the thermostat demands heat. A safety
device keeps the gas from being turned on at the burner if the pilot light has
gone out. Relighting a pilot is simple and you should learn the procedure if
you have gas heat. Most furnaces have a three way switch labeled OFFPILOT
ON. To light the pilot, turn the dial to OFF. Then turn to PILOT and light the
pilot light. To do this, you must exert downward pressure on the selector knob
and hold the knob down for several seconds or maybe even a minute after
the pilot light is lit. Next, release the downward pressure and the pilot should
stay lit. IF not, go back to OFF and start again. Finally, move the selector from
PILOT to ON. Some selectors have a red buttons that must be held down after
lighting.
If you have not looked your furnace over before the pilot goes out, you may
not be able to figure out where the light is located it is dark in there. New
furnaces have automatic lighting devices and no pilot is required. Forget all
the above and call for service if the furnace will not light. For both types of gas
Initial __________

SECTION 2

(continued)

furnaces, the first thing to look for is the red switch. Next, check for the pilot.
Finally call for service.
BASE BOARD HEAT Ensure that air is free to flow under the radiator unit. If
blocked by a thick rug, the unit will not heat properly. Keep the door closed if
you are heating one room only. Cold air will always rush into a room causing
drafts and false reading on the room thermostat.
WATER HEATER If gas, learn to light the pilot light. (Same as gas furnace).
If electric, check for a timer. Learn to set timer and which fuse of circuit breakers controls the unit.
AIR CONDITIONERS Poor cooling is usually caused by a clogged filter. If
the filter has been changed and there is inadequate airflow, call for service. If
the unit does not run at all, check the red switch. Check the fuse of the circuit
breaker. If the unit still will not operate call for service.
Water drips from inside the unit usually runs on the floor or drips through the
ceiling if the unit is in the attic. Shut the unit off and clear the condensation
drain. Some drains are very easy to clean with a vacuum cleaner or garden
hose used to blow out the line. If you cannot do it yourself call for service. DO
NOT operate the unit until the clogged drain is cleared as the unit will continue
to produce water and damage to the property may occur.

PRECAUTIONS DURING FREEZING WEATHER


Always leave the heat ON.
Close the crawl space vents found around the bottom of the exterior walls
of the house.
Let both hot and cold faucets run slowly on extremely cold nights.
Well pumps must have water drained from system prior to freezing weather.
Some may be disconnected and stored in garage or shed.
AIR FILTERS Check for location when moving in. Change MONTHLY or as
often as necessary to improve performance of furnace or air conditioner and
upon move-out.
I acknowledge that I am responsible for changing the HVAC filters once a
month or as needed. If damage occurs due to neglect in this area of maintenance, tenant will be liable for repair costs.
NO WAX FLOORS Use only preparations especially designed for these
floors.
FIBERGLASS TUBS Use Soft Scrub or other comparable cleanser on tubs
and similar sinks and showers.
CARPETS Are considered part of cleaning at termination of lease and should
be cleaned as specified in lease.
WALLS DO NOT use contact paper or sticky paperhangers on walls, doors,
or cabinet surfaces.
WOOD STOVES Ask if there are any special instructions. Generally, stoves
are restricted to hardwood only.
FIREPLACES Your fireplace is not an incinerator for Christmas wrappings,
cardboard, etc. Burning these materials could be very dangerous. Before your
first fire of the season, the fireplace should be inspected and cleaned by a professional chimney sweep. Please burn hardwood only, so a buildup of tar and
soot can be avoided.

adjustment (credit or debit) to my account.
I have the right to stop payment of a debit entry by notifying my financial institution before the
account is charged. If an erroneous debit entry is charged against my account, I have the right
to have the amount of the entry credited to my account by my financial institution, if, within 15
days following the date on which I was sent a statement of account or a written notice of such
entry or 45 days after posting, whichever occurs first, I give my financial institution a written
notice identifying the entry, stating that it is in error and requesting credit back to my account.

I understand that if Z Team Property Management tries to draft funds for rental payment
from the account noted above, and there are not enough funds to cover said draft, it will be
handled in the same manner as a non-sufficient check and subject to fees per the terms of my
lease. I will be dropped from the direct draft program and be unable to write a personal check
to Z Team Property Management. All payments will be made by certified funds for a period of
six months at which time my Agent/Property Manager will determine if I can be reenrolled in
the program. After a second non-sufficient funds draft I will be dropped from the program with
no possibility of reinstatement.
