Following completion of the installation and before placing the stove, appliance, chimney or fireplace into use, the permittee shall notify the Building Inspector, who shall forthwith inspect the installation to determine that it is in compliance with the requirements of this subchapter. If found to be in compliance with this subchapter, the Building Inspector shall countersign the permit and note the date of his or her inspection. If found not to be in compliance, the Building Inspector shall notify the permittee, in writing, of the nature of the noncompliance, and the stove, chimney, fireplace or appliance shall not be placed into use until the condition has been corrected and reinspected by the Building Inspector and the permit countersigned by him or her.
