to or greater than 15.
2. Heat Pumps must be listed in the Energy Star website. www.energystar.gov

proper specialty code. The applicant is responsible for checking with the state, county, city, and
building owner regarding local conditions, restrictions, codes, ordinances, rules and regulations prior
to installation.
