How to use this page

Three checks before acting on a local result

Confirm the permit authority. This page is scoped to San Diego, CA. If a property is outside city limits or in a special district, confirm the local authority before using this as a planning path.

Keep permits and incentives separate. A rebate or utility incentive does not replace permit review, and an empty rebate section only means HomeReq has no approved local program record published for this project yet.

Open the official source before starting work. Use the source cards and verification dates as a trail back to the issuing department, utility, or program administrator.

Mechanical permit or Simple No-Plan MEP eligibility check for heat pump work

City of San Diego DSD lists heat pump package units and mini-split systems under Simple No-Plan MEP items for single-family homes and duplex buildings, while its mechanical permit page says heating, ventilation, air-conditioning, or refrigeration systems may not be installed, altered, replaced, or repaired unless a Mechanical Permit has been obtained. Heat pump projects should confirm the property is inside the City of San Diego permitting authority and verify whether the scope qualifies for Simple MEP or needs a plan-required mechanical, electrical, plumbing/gas, building, historic, or utility review.
