Township Building & Demolition By‑law 0709/2020
By-law 0709/2020 is the local Building By-law for the Township of Addington Highlands. It outlines the rules and procedures for all building, demolition, and structural alterations within the township, as required under the Ontario Building Code.
This by-law is directly relevant to commercial boiler removal because:
- Boilers are classified as mechanical systems that are regulated under building and demolition permits.
- Any removal involving structural changes (e.g. pad, vent stack, boiler room wall) or mechanical disconnections (e.g. hydronic or fuel piping) requires township approval.
- Final inspections must be scheduled to confirm safe disconnection and code compliance.
Eco Metal Recycling handles this process for you by:
- Securing necessary permits on your behalf
- Coordinating with the Township’s Chief Building Official
- Ensuring all documentation is finalized for inspections, insurance, or resale
