Boston
Electrical, sheet metal, gas, plumbing, and building permit check for heat pump work
Boston requires an electrical permit for electrical installations, alterations, and repairs, and its sheet metal, gas, plumbing, short-form, and long-form permit pages cover related trade, wall-opening, and structural scopes. A heat pump or mini-split project should be checked with Inspectional Services before work starts because the actual scope can include electrical wiring or service work, sheet metal or exhaust work, gas or plumbing changes, wall openings, exterior equipment, landmark review, or structural changes.
