				 his/her performance.
B.
				 These standards of practice establish the minimum performance
				 requirements for home inspectors and associate home inspectors to
				 conduct home inspections.
C. For the purposes of §
										5.22     of this Part, the term "inspector" refers to the individual
				 conducting the inspection, be it a licensed home inspector, licensed
				 associate home inspector, and/or trainee.
5.24.1
Purpose of Home
				 Inspection
A. The purpose of
				 a home inspection for residential building(s), including their
				 attached appurtenances, is to provide the client with an inspection
				 report that forthrightly discloses the physical conditions of all
				 systems and components which are readily accessible and observable,
				 and inspected pursuant to the contract, including those systems and
				 components which are safety hazards as observed at the time of the
				 inspection.
B. An
				 inspection carried out under the standards of practice for home
				 inspections is not and shall not be construed to be a comprehensive
				 architectural and/or an engineering study of the dwelling in
				 question.
C. Because a
				 home inspection is limited in its scope and depth, the information
				 provided to the client is not intended to provide the client with
				 protection from all risks involved in the home buying
				 process.
