No replacement or new installation of HVAC (heating, ventilating and air conditioning) equipment shall be installed in any structure (residential, commercial or industrial) without first obtaining a required permit. No repair of existing HVAC equipment shall require a permit so long as the existing system so repaired remains in tact. Any repair requiring redesign, expansion, contraction or systemic changes will be done only pursuant to a permit. All HVAC work done within the town will be done by licensed tradesmen duly registered to work within the town. Owner repairs only will be allowed on residential repairs if no systemic change or equipment replacement occurs. All HVAC permits shall be issued in the name or names of the property owners pursuant to a signed application and written plans setting forth the specifics of the job in such specificity as the Building Inspector may require to insure code compliance. Permit costs are listed in Chapter 152, Appendix A.
