About this file
This document is a FEMA First Article Inspection checklist for Manufactured Housing Units (MHUs), designed to comprehensively evaluate the quality and condition of mobile housing units during initial production inspection. The checklist covers extensive exterior and interior inspection criteria across multiple domains, including:
Exterior inspection items include assessment of tires, rims, axles, frame components, hitch and coupler integrity, brake wiring, bottom board condition, wind diverters, vinyl siding, windows, doors, and shingles. Interior inspection criteria encompass vinyl flooring, wall finishes, trim, windows, doors, ceiling finish, plumbing, appliances, furniture inventory, key sets, NOAA radios, window screens, bath exhaust fans, lever handles, and electrical/water line tests. The form allows inspectors to systematically mark each line item as "Pass" or "Fail" and provides space to document specific failure descriptions, with detailed layout diagrams to help pinpoint and record the location of any deficiencies discovered during the first article inspection process.
