Do You Need a Permit to Install a Water Heater in Lubbock?
Some homeowners, and maybe even some contractors, may feel as if permits are a waste of time. Some service contractors may even neglect to get permits for certain jobs deeming them inconsequential.
However, in the city of Lubbock, they would be sadly mistaken. The language of the city ordinances is quite clear on the matter of permits. Basically, if the home comfort system or the structure itself is regulated by an adopted code or ordinance, a permit will be required before any work commences. Completing any repairs, additions, changes, or even demolition without first having the proper city documentation approving these actions is in direct violation and could result in fines or even a stop-work order.
One instance that requires a city of Lubbock permit is a new water heater installation. There are many reasons why a homeowner should want their plumber to have the proper water heater permit. A good question to consider is: If your plumber is willing to disregard the permitting process, what else might they brush off as unimportant?
