Here is a complete, clear and up-to-date guide to ensure your project is compliant from the start.
Municipal permits in LaSalle: what you need to know
No permit required for most residential installations
Good news: Installing a heat pump or air conditioning unit generally does not require a permit in the borough of LaSalle . This simplifies your process and allows you to plan your project more quickly.
However, the absence of a permit does not mean an absence of rules . The installation must comply with the provisions of the LaSalle Urban Planning Regulations in order to ensure the safety, comfort and tranquility of the neighborhood.
Urban planning regulations: rules and constraints to be respected
Device location
-
Prohibition in the front yard : it is strictly forbidden to install your air conditioning or heat pump unit in the front yard .
This rule aims to preserve the aesthetics of the facades and maintain visual uniformity in the neighborhood. -
Minimum distances :
-
The device must be installed at least 2 meters from the rear property line.
-
A distance of at least 1 meter must be respected from the lateral limits .
-
Sound level
Your heat pump or air conditioner must not exceed 50 decibels at the edge of your property.
This requirement guarantees a calm and harmonious environment for all residents.
At AirGreen , we offer modern, low-noise devices that are perfectly suited to these municipal criteria.
Land located at an intersection
If your land is at the intersection of two public roads, the requirements may differ.
We recommend contacting the LaSalle permit counter directly to obtain details specific to your situation.
