7.1. Windows

Windows are inspected on the interior of the building in both the units and common areas. The standards for windows in the dwelling units and in non-dwelling unit areas (e.g., “Common Areas”) are the same for each part of the windows. However, the severity and repair periods vary between the dwelling units and common areas.

To make this easier to differentiate, the window standards have been separated into two different sections.

Added 5/11/2023 “In the final NSPIRE Standards notice, a screen will be considered a component of the window, and will be cited if damaged, missing or not functionally adequate”
