Air Conditioning Designs for a Residential Building Permit
In the state of Florida each county and city has it's own code requirements that must be met in order to apply for a residential building permit.

Below is the criteria used in by different county and city plan review offices in Florida regarding air conditioning designs for permitting construction of a new residence. We'll be adding to this list as we get answers from other jurisdictions. Some jurisdictions may never require designs with new residential building permit applications, while other jurisdictions may require them on all permit applications. Some jurisdictions may base it on the tonnage required to cool the home, while others may base it on square feet under air.

The information below is subject to change from time to time. Please notify us if you find any of the information on this page to be incorrect. Thank you.
