What the walk found that a desk review would not

An address tells you which rules apply. It cannot tell you how many devices are behind the door, or whether last year's paperwork was actually filed. These five are the reason the walk exists.

  1. A freight elevator in service with no DOB device number. It has no inspection history because, as far as the city is concerned, it does not exist. Registration comes before anything else.
  2. A second low-pressure boiler with no inspection report on file. The device is registered. No recent filing was located for it, while its twin two metres away is current.
  3. A sprinkler-service backflow preventer that DEP has no record of. Installed and in service. A test result cannot be filed against a device that was never filed.
  4. LL152 inspected in 2025, GPS2 never certified to DOB. The expensive half was done and the cheap half was missed. The penalty attaches to the filing, not the inspection.
  5. High-pressure boiler with the internal inspection done and the external missing. A single yes-or-no compliance status would have shown this as covered.
Step one

Find it

We walk the building, including mechanical rooms, roof and service areas, and list every asset a jurisdiction requires an inspector to see.

Step two

Tag it

Each asset gets a durable Insparisk tag and is matched to its city record, so the physical unit and the filing history point at each other.

Step three

Grade it

Last inspection, filing on record or not, next due date, condition flag. This is the column an address lookup cannot produce.
