(a) This chapter shall cover the installation, alteration and addition to any ducted air heating, wet heating (steam, hot water or hydronic), electric heating in conjunction with Chapter 1432, ventilating and air conditioning systems.
(b) "Space conditioning" means tempering the habitable space by either warming, cooling or air movement, filtering or humidification.
(Ord. 42-1981. Passed 2-23-81.)
(a) All heating, refrigeration, air conditioning and ventilating devices, appliances, accessories and controls shall be of a type approved by the Board of Examiners. Devices, appliances, accessories or controls approved by Underwriters' Laboratories, Inc., or the American Gas Association, or tested and approved by any other nationally recognized testing laboratory which possesses adequate equipment, experience and competency in this field, may be approved by the Board without additional tests.
(b) No heating equipment or other equipment which produces or may produce smoke, toxic or noxious gases and fumes, fly ash or dust, shall be installed except in conformity with the Ohio EPA rules and regulations governing such installations.
(Ord. 42-1981. Passed 2-23-81.)
(a) Whenever a proposed installation or alteration of any system subject to the provisions of this chapter involves passage of ducts through fire walls or required fire-resistant floors or partitions, or any other conditions which may affect the fire resistance or fire safety of a building, the application for a permit shall be accompanied by layout and detail drawings indicating the provisions to be made to maintain the required fire resistance of the building and to prevent the spread of smoke, fumes or gases in the event of fire.
(b) Plans and specifications shall show in sufficient detail all pertinent features and clearances of the parts of the system, including the form and dimensions of the building, or parts thereof, in which such fuel-burning equipment is to be used, the maximum quality of fuel to be burned per hour and the operating requirements of such equipment. The use to be made of such fuel-burning equipment shall also be stated.
(c) A registered State of Ohio professional mechanical engineer stamp on a completed set of heating or air conditioning plans and specifications shall be sufficient evidence that the design complies with accepted engineering practices.
(d) Calculations shall be submitted on all other plans and specifications covering newly designed systems or revised systems in which the capacity has been changed. The above regulations are required for any alternative or substitute system that is to be considered.
(e) The capacity of replacement equipment in existing systems which are not to be altered and have given satisfactory performance shall be determined by the total net installed load of the existing system and no heat loss calculation shall be required. The total net installed load and the size of the replacement equipment shall be submitted. Plans and specifications will not be required for the replacement of existing equipment of equal capacity.
