Dear Valued Customers,
Local Law 152 was signed into Law in 2016 as part of a package of safety regulations concerning Gas Lines for NYC Buildings.
What is Local law 152?
The DOB requires all buildings in New York except for occupancy group R-3 or buildings that have no more than two dwelling units. To undergo a gas line inspection once every 4 years. The inspection must be performed by a certified master plumber, and then file the report to the DOB by years end.
When does my building have to file for Local Law 152? This can be taken care of while performing home remodel.
Depending on which district a building is located in, will depend when that building has to file. Below you will find a link of a map showing when each district is due and where that district is.
