Missed in Home Inspection? Covered in Home Warranty

[Chad R.]

Hi,

I purchased a condo in FL in November, we had an issue with the shower in the Main bathroom this week and had it resolved through a Home warranty (that we negotiated into our deal). However when the plumber was their he tried to isolate the water inlet to the condo and it wouldn't stop the water! 

The shower was fixed by them, however he said the water shut off valve wasn't covered by the policy...

1. The policy states it covers 'valves' ( does not specifically address Main shut offs), are we covered by the home warranty?

2. In the home inspection report there is no mention of this valve ever being looked at. Should it have been? and would we have any recourse now that we are left with the issue? 

Warranty is with First American Home warranty - Planning to speak with them first.

Hoping not to get burned here.

Thanks

Chad
