6. Find 3 jobs for the TSSA to inspect.

7. Bring warning tags as the TSSA inspector may want you to issue a warning tag if a deficiency is found.

They will insist you keep detailed notes and pictures for any job you may have done.  Show the inspector a checklist of what the installer completes after each install.  Be specific.  Verify flame sensor safety by disconnecting wire, verify primary limit by disabling fan motor, verify appliance output, clock gas meter, verify manifold pressure etc...  Make sure the pressure test tag is completed correctly and it has the gas fitter classification (G1, G2, G3).
