Independent Inspectors are responsible for consulting with builders and developers to help them achieve certification. Independent Inspectors evaluate projects to see that relevant criteria are met. Independent Inspectors are required to attend a two-day training, pass a written exam, and effectively submit a minimum of two apprenticeship inspection reports.

Independent Inspectors are not water management district employees. As private business people, they charge a fee for their services directly to the builder or homeowner who engages their services.

Existing Independent Inspectors can enter their inspection information through FHBA Certified Ratings Program administered by Triconic LLC. All Florida Water Star projects are processed through the FHBA Portal.
