Each year about this time I get at least one phone call from a member/client about their annual “holiday inspection”; trust me when I say the term “holiday” has absolutely no relation to the Thanksgiving or Christmas holidays! However, their CMMS has spit out a work order that calls for a piping circuit to be inspected and the inspection is called a “holiday inspection”. This has gotten to the point that we now will make sure that any holiday inspections are not scheduled for November/December time frame. So then what is a “holiday inspection”?
