What do I need to know if I'm installing a new furnace, fireplace, or water heater?
Do I need a permit to install a new HVAC system, fireplace, generator, or water heater?
In most cases, the answer is a resounding yes.
BUYER BEWARE! Many "reputable" contractors are NOT pulling required permits or getting the mandatory inspections completed on the equipment they install. Make sure to verify that yours is doing things right before you authorize the work!
What happens if your contractor does NOT pull the required permits or have the work inspected?
If problems with your heat pump, AC, gas fireplace, generator, or water heater should arise, your homeowner's insurance likely won't cover the claim.
If you sell later, unpermitted work may need inspection and costly updates to meet code.
