My regency 2400 insert is due early next week and I’m told will be installed next week. No I don’t believe it but anyway I found time to go to the town inspection office to apply for my permits. Yes two permits one for the inspector and one for the Fire Marshall. I walk in with the full manual and pictures. I took pics inside and out of the metal zero clearance fireplace that the unit will be installed in. The inspector says 135 bucks. I said would you like to see it before the install, he said no need to. I then asked him what do you look for in the inspection. He says as long as you meet the minimum clearances. I then said here are some pictures of inside the fireplace and the UL tag. He says I don’t need to see them. Then I asked what would the Fire Marshal be looking for. He says just the clearances. Needless to say I walked out shaking my head in disbelief, out 135 bucks.
I want to thank all the posts that I read that helped me assure that I will be able to sleep at nights because I tripled checked all the safety issues that have been brought up. Don’t count on your local inspector to due it for you. This is not a hit on all inspectors as the ones in this forum helped me tremendously
