Ville de Beaconsfield: Obtaining a Permit to Install a Thermopump or Air Conditioning Unit
Dear residents of Ville de Beaconsfield,
We are delighted to serve you at AirGreen, your trusted partner for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) solutions. As part of our commitment to you, we want to provide detailed and accurate information regarding the installation of thermopumps in your beautiful municipality.
Key Information on Installing Thermopumps in Beaconsfield:
-
No Permit Required: The good news is that you no longer need to obtain a permit to install a thermopump in Beaconsfield.
-
Compliance with Noise Standards: All new thermopumps installed must operate at a noise level not exceeding 45 dBa (equivalent to a whisper), measured at a height of 1.0 m at the boundary of your property.
-
Installation Location: Thermopumps may only be installed in the backyard and side yards of your property. For corner lots, installation is permitted in the front yard facing the side street or the side yard.
-
Distance from Neighboring Properties: Although there is no specific requirement, it is strongly recommended to position your thermopump as far as possible from neighboring properties to minimize noise disturbances.
-
Mandatory Protective Screen: Your thermopump must be concealed from view from the street and adjacent properties using a protective screen.
-
Prohibited Materials for Protective Screens: Certain materials are prohibited for constructing protective screens, including asbestos-cement panels or shingles, plywood panels, fiberboard and sheet metal, aluminum or steel siding (except imitation variants), asphalted, felted, tarred paper, any material giving an unfinished appearance, galvanized sheet metal, concrete blocks, and round wood (treated or untreated). Wood siding is allowed only if weather-treated.
Your Responsibility:
As a resident, it is your responsibility to comply with all applicable rules and regulations. We encourage you to obtain your neighbors' consent when necessary and ensure your installation is compliant. While we at AirGreen are here to guide and assist you throughout the process, the final responsibility for obtaining permits and ensuring compliance rests with you, unless otherwise specified in our contract.
