  • Underground plumbing/minimum 10' head or 5 lbs maximum.
  • Concrete floor prior to pouring - 6 mil poly to be installed under slab.
  • Rough framing/Fire stopping inspection.
  • Rough plumbing inspection.
  • Rough electrical inspection.
  • Rough heating/cooling inspection.
  • Insulation inspection, after all roughs inspection (building must be waterproof before insulating, i.e. all roofing, siding and windows installed.
