How to use this page

Three checks before acting on a local result

Confirm the permit authority. This page is scoped to Seattle, WA. 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.

SDCI says a mechanical permit enables installation of new heating, venting, and air conditioning equipment, and its mechanical inspection page specifically identifies residential refrigeration installations such as heat pumps, air conditioners, and mini-split systems as city-permitted work that SDCI inspects. SDCI also says a refrigeration permit is needed whenever a refrigeration system is assembled on site and that a separate mechanical permit may also be required.
