    Subpart E_Manufacturer Inspection and Certification Requirements

 

Sec.  3282.204  IPIA services.



    (a) Each manufacturer shall obtain the services of an IPIA as set 

out in Sec.  3282.362 for each manufacturing plant operated by the 

manufacturer.

    (b) The manufacturer shall make available to the IPIA operating in 

each of its plants a copy of the drawings and specifications from the 

DAPIA approved design and the quality assurance manual for that plant, 

and the IPIA shall perform an initial factory inspection as set out in 

Sec.  3282.362(b). If the IPIA issues a deviation report after the 

initial factory inspection, the manufacturer shall make any corrections 

or adjustments which are necessary to conform with the DAPIA approved 

designs and manuals. After the corrections required by the deviation 

report are completed to the satisfaction of the IPIA, the IPIA shall 

issue the certification report as described in Sec.  3282.362(b)(2). In 

certain instances a DAPIA may provide the certification report. (See 

Sec.  3282.362) The manufacturer shall maintain a current copy of each 

certification report in the plant to which the certification report 

relates.

    (c) After the certification report has been signed by the IPIA, the 

manufacturer shall obtain labels from the IPIA and shall affix them to 

completed manufactured homes as set out in Sec.  3282.362(c)(2). During 

the initial factory certification, the IPIA may apply labels to 

manufactured homes which it knows to be in compliance with the standards 

if it is performing complete inspections of all phases of production of 

each manufactured home and the manufacturer authorizes it to apply 

labels.

    (d) During the course of production the manufacturer shall maintain 

a complete set of approved drawings, specifications, and approved design 

changes for the use of the IPIA's inspector and always available to that 

inspector when in the manufacturing plant.

    (e) If, during the course of production, an IPIA finds that a 

failure to conform to a standard exists in a manufactured home in 

production, the manufacturer shall correct the failure to confirm in any 

manufactured homes

still in the factory and held by distributors or dealers and shall carry

conform.
