About the event

This webinar examines practical strategies to simplify and accelerate permitting for heat pump water heaters. Permitting delays and associated expenses often hinder the adoption of clean water heating systems, especially when permits are mandatory to claim financial incentives. Attendees will explore jurisdictional solutions that eliminate prolonged wait times for on-site inspections. Specific practices under discussion include minor label permit systems using stickers, random auditing, virtual inspections, inspector guidance documents, and reduced permit fees. The session focuses on streamlining regulatory pathways to drive technology adoption while safeguarding installation quality.
