Plumbing Inspection in Taylorsville, KY
Taylorsville turns over at about the national middle: 19% of its owner households arrived in 2018 or later. Common enough that most people know somebody who has had a report, rare enough that few have read the exclusions in one.
The one-paragraph answer
In Taylorsville, 19% of owner-occupied homes have changed hands since 2018. Whichever side of a sale you are on, the exclusions decide what you know: a standard inspection stops at the visible plumbing and leaves the sewer lateral to a camera survey.

When Taylorsville moved in
A middling turnover figure is the least informative kind, which is its own useful fact: it means you cannot infer much about any particular house from the town, and the report on the one in front of you is the only evidence that counts.
| Owner households in Taylorsville | Share of all owners |
|---|---|
| Moved in 2021 or later | 5% |
| Moved in 2018–2020 | 14% |
| Moved in 2010–2017 | 33% |
| Moved in before 2010 | 47% |
Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-year estimates, table B25038 (tenure by year householder moved into unit), 2023 release. Universe: 5,831 occupied housing units, of which 4,954 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
The water heater is covered in some detail by both standards — and InterNACHI is equally explicit that nobody is required to measure its capacity, temperature or adequacy, or to test the relief valve. It is looked at, not operated.

What it is required to cover
The water heater is covered in more detail than most of the system: InterNACHI takes in the energy source, the venting connections, the temperature and pressure-relief valve, seismic bracing where it applies, and the labeled capacity. What it stops short of is operating any of it.
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
If you are selling, establish it before somebody else does. The same finding is worth more to a buyer who discovered it than to one who was told.
The published standards settle most arguments: excluded, covered, and the separate instruction for everything past the building.
