Restoration in Chula Vista
Chula Vista's Utility Permits page requires a permit to install, repair, replace or relocate a water heater, water piping, a sewer lateral, gas piping, a furnace or an electrical panel. Fee Bulletin 10-200 adds a permit intake fee of $62 without plans or $93 with plans to the unit fees. Those run $139 for the first residential water heater and $31 for each one after it, $186 for water pipe repair or replacement, and $139 for the first five plumbing fixtures.
That bulletin is dated July 2017. Confirm today's amounts with Development Services, 276 Fourth Avenue, (619) 409-5811. Building Division Form 4609 says California requires a water heater to be strapped with at least two restraints, one in its upper third and one in its lower third, and a heater in a garage needs an 18-inch stand. You can't replace a water heater without a permit, the same form says. The Permit Inspection Line, 619-409-5434, runs on your keypad: press 1 to schedule, 2 to cancel or reschedule and 3 for results, then key in the permit number and #.
