Limited Service Repair permit path for water heater replacement
City of San Antonio residential plan review guidance says that when a water heater needs to be replaced, a licensed contractor can use the Limited Service Repair permit process to make the repair immediately and file the formal permit within three business days after the work is completed. The City then sends the property owner a permit letter, and an inspection can be requested within 30 days or waived.
