Plumbing Inspection in Peachtree City, GA
About 28% of the people who own a home in Peachtree City bought it in 2018 or later. On a turnover figure that high, the question is less whether an inspection happened than what it was allowed to look at.
The one-paragraph answer
28% of owner households in Peachtree City moved in during 2018 or later. On a turnover rate that high the question is rarely whether an inspection happened but what it was allowed to cover, and the buried sewer lateral is excluded by both standards of practice.

When Peachtree City moved in
A high turnover rate means most transactions here are recent, so the report that came with the house is probably still in a drawer. It is worth reading again — not the findings, which you already acted on, but the exclusions, which you almost certainly did not.
| Owner households in Peachtree City | Share of all owners |
|---|---|

| Moved in 2018–2020 | 21% |

Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-year estimates, table B25038 (tenure by year householder moved into unit), 2023 release. Universe: 15,148 occupied housing units, of which 11,094 are owner-occupied. This counts when the CURRENT occupant moved in, so it measures recent moves as a share of the housing stock — not a rate of sales per year.
What the inspection will not cover
Both standards exclude septic and other sewage disposal or wastewater treatment systems. The inspector confirms that the fixtures drain; the run leaving the building is not part of the job, and it is the most expensive thing on a property to be wrong about.

What it is required to cover
ASHI requires the energy source and vent system of the water heating equipment to be covered, and InterNACHI requires the same ground from the other direction. Where the two standards overlap is the part of the report you can rely on whichever association the inspector belongs to.
What is actually covered — because silence in a report means one thing about a covered system and something completely different about an excluded one.
What to do about it
Write down where the main water shut-off and the main fuel shut-off are. InterNACHI requires both locations to be described, and they are the two most useful lines in the document.
The published standards settle most arguments: excluded, covered, and the separate instruction for everything past the building.
