§40-12 Examination and Approval of Applications

Title 1 ‒ Department of Buildings > 40 Installation and Maintenance of Gas-Fueled Water and Space Heaters in All Portions of Dwellings Used or Occupied for Living Purposes > §40-12 Examination and Approval of Applications
JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER
   (a)   Applications, when filed, shall be processed in the usual manner and forwarded to the inspectors of plumbing.
   (b)   Applications calling for the installation of gas-fueled space and water heaters shall be expedited and may be taken out of turn, except that they shall be processed in the order in which they were received. They shall be examined for compliance with these rules and all other laws and regulations applicable to such installations. If any chimney or metal stack is to be installed, examiners shall check such construction for compliance with Subchapter 15 of Chapter 1 of Title 27 of the Administrative Code (Building Code). They shall require that the foundation shall be carried not less than four feet below the surface of the ground, and that the soil on which it is built to be not overloaded. They shall require that new chimneys be strapped to the existing walls.
   (c)   Only applications calling for the installation of gas-fueled space or water heaters, approved by the Department of Buildings, specifying the make and model shall be approved. All such gas appliances shall be of types approved also by the American Gas Association. However, where an owner desires to continue to use any gas appliance installed in a multiple dwelling prior to December 9, 1955, clearly shows on the plan the data required by 1 RCNY §40-11(f) and prominently marks the appliances that have not been approved by the Department of Health, the application may be conditionally approved pending the approval of the appliances by the Department of Health.
