Does anybody know if all AC units mounted on the roof need a permit no matter what size? I think a disgruntled subcontractor has dropped a dime on a new 25 ton unit (it has permits). FDNY wants to see the 25 ton paper work which I can produce but there is a little 3 ton unit behind it and I’m thinking I’ll pretend the 3 ton doesn’t exist. The asshole also said the sprinkler system is “defective” what ever that means. That’s not a civilian complaint, that’s someone who knows violation nomenclature. Apparently anyone can call in a complaint regarding a leaking sprinkler head or closed valve and the fire department has to check it out.
