Fact-Checking Policy

Technical and safety-sensitive claims should be checked against manufacturer documentation, government guidance, recognized standards, or other reputable technical references when available. Important numbers, limits, model-specific procedures, and safety warnings should be verified before publication.

Electrical, gas, refrigerant, structural, pressure, flooding, and other hazardous work should be clearly separated from low-risk homeowner checks. Readers are encouraged to use appropriately qualified professionals when a task requires specialized training, instruments, permits, or code compliance.
