In Biloxi, Mississippi, flooding and hurricane-force winds (over 95 miles per hour) damaged several homes and businesses, necessitating curfew and a state of emergency.

Don't Replace or Relocate Water Heaters Without Building Permits

Most Common Alabama Building Code Violatons

The installation of a new or replacement water heater in Alabama usually requires payment of a fee and a permit from the local city Building Department. Permits can be issued to property owners or licensed contractors. Improperly installed water heaters can be potentially hazardous to your residents or your building. Your contractor may not be getting the proper permits and it is the property owner's responsibility to make sure that permits are issued and given final inspection approval. Water heaters that are installed without permits, and later discovered by inspectors, can be subject to extra penalty fees. New Alabama state regulations require seismic strapping of all water heaters when a building is sold. The Building Division has a free publication from the Alabama State Architect's Office that details several methods for seismic strapping. This is also available on the Building Department's web page.
