What all is involved for an HVAC equipment inspection?
Problems can be avoided by having open communication between the permit holder and the inspection team. We must have access to the HVAC equipment and the supply wiring so that we can perform the inspection. Upon request, we will give you a time frame of within 1 hour of when we will be on site for inspection. During the inspection we will also check for the presence of a testing lab label on the equipment and we will check the manufacturers label on each piece of equipment. The National Electrical Code provides that the information on the manufacturers label shall be used to determine the proper circuit sizing and the proper size and type of overcurrent protection. Reading and complying with these labels before you schedule your inspection can help you avoid problems. Even on simple equipment change-outs using existing circuits, there can be differences in labeling information between the old and the new equipment that will warrant changes in the supply wiring.
