Home Profile
What Is a Home Profile and Why Every Home Should Have One
A Home Profile organizes filter sizes, equipment details, shutoff locations, photos, maintenance history, and future priorities.
A Home Profile is a living record of the information that makes a home easier to maintain. It is not a one-time inspection report. It improves as the home is serviced.
What should a Home Profile include?
The most useful Home Profile contains the details homeowners repeatedly need but rarely have organized.
- HVAC and appliance filter sizes
- Equipment makes, models, and serial numbers
- Water shutoff and electrical panel locations
- Smoke and CO device locations and battery types
- Photos of important equipment and controls
- Completed maintenance history
- Open priorities and future materials needed
Why it matters
A Home Profile saves time because each visit starts with better context. It also helps a homeowner avoid solving the same basic information problem repeatedly.
Why it should be built over time
Trying to document everything in one visit is inefficient. A better approach is to build the record during recurring visits as the Home Manager works through the home.
