You need a mechanical engineer. If you’re using an HVAC company, they usually have someone on staff that will do the permitting for you as part of their supply and install fee.
‘technically’ is a polite way of saying you need a permit but nobody ever bothers to get one.
my architect todd ernst found someone ( howard podosky) who performed the test for about $300.. it is a handheld meter that gives a reading of the sound pollution from about 5 feet inside the unit ( next to the window)…we showed his report to the DOB and all was approved….
mine will be less than 10 feet from a window as well. how did you get this sound test done?
Hello.
I did this w/ my 2 fujitsu compressors. There is a legal requirement that they must be a certain distance ( i think it was 10 ft) from a window. Mine were not, so I had a TR1 test ( sound pollution) and it passed as the compressors are super quiet. good luck..
what does “technically” mean???
Side wall installations would technically require a permit.
