[ASKNACHI]This question was posted on AskNACHI.org by John F Janssen (from Hudson Wisconsin). [/ASKNACHI]I am looking at a house in Hudson Wisconsin to buy. They have a downstairs basement. It has no window, nor any type of ventilation fan. Is this a code violation?
Are you refering to a bathroom in the basement area?
A ventilation fan or window is required for a bathroom.
Home Inspectors are not code officials but would point this situation out as a concern during a home inspection.
P.S. I’m a home inspector in Hudson WI.
Feel free to contact me if you have questions.
