Rule Details

Rule Number: 10P034
Title: 2009 Plumbing Rules
Type: Standard
Status: Adopted
Agency: Plumbers' Examination Board
Legal Authority: 26 V.S.A. ยง 2173
Summary: The primary focus of this rule is to update the Vermont adoption of the International Plumbing Code from the 2003 edition to the 2009 edition. The rules are also reorganized to improve usability and avoid duplication.
Persons Affected: Licensed plumbers, wholesale and retail plumbing supply dealers, heating contractors, general contractors, architects, commercial and residential building owners tenants, Dept. of Buildings & General Services, Dept. of Health, Agency of Natural Resources, Dept. of Labor, Dept. of Historic Preservation, Vermont Bar Association, Vermont Bankers Association, Realtors Association.
Economic Impact: The most significant economic impacts for changes described in these rules are from changes established by the Vermont Legislature and are not created or established by these rules. The legislature approved increased fees for plumbing licenses and permits effective 07/01/10. Costs may have increased up to 15 for pipe and certain plumbing fixtures due to the consumer protection law regarding lead content passed by the legislature that established more stringent requirements than the International Plumbing Code effective 01/01/10. Long term energy costs may be reduced due to the repeal by the legislature of the minimum temperature requirements for water heaters.
