I am replacing my pellet stove with a newer model. Do I need a permit?
Yes, the installation of any new heating appliance (wood stove, pellet stove, coal stove, gas fire place, etc) triggers the requirement for obtaining a permit prior to installation. Also, the installation must be inspected prior to use of the appliance. This requirement also applies for new chimneys whether they are masonry chimneys constructed on-site or metal factory-built chimneys.
