I have an older solid fuel-burning appliance which was manufactured prior to the 1982 labeling requirements and is already installed. Can I use this appliance even though it has no label?
ANSWER 6 – The Building Code allows for the use of a non-conforming, non-labeled appliance if it is already installed, however it is important that you refer to the Building Code, (780 CMR 60) for further guidance as well as your local building inspector when working with an older, non-labeled appliance.
