Why do I need a permit for a gas log installation, furnace or water heater replacement?
Gas burning appliances create carbon monoxide as a by-product of combustion. Old appliance venting systems may have a defect that is to be corrected now at the installation of the new appliance. Many new appliances require combustion air which may not have been present under the old installation. The mechanical code as adopted by the Town requires permits for replacement of appliances.
