How to use this page

Three checks before acting on a local result

Confirm the permit authority. This page is scoped to Philadelphia, PA. 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 EZ mechanical permit check for HVAC replacement

Philadelphia L&I says a Mechanical Permit is needed for heating, venting, air conditioning, ductwork, and equipment or piping that uses natural gas, while some mechanical work such as replacing appliances in one-or-two-family dwellings can be eligible for an EZ permit without plans. HVAC replacement should be confirmed with L&I because the permit route depends on equipment, ductwork, gas piping, electrical power, penetrations, capacity, historic conditions, and whether the work fits an EZ standard.
