HVAC contractors operating in Dayton, Ohio, must navigate a two-tier regulatory environment. At the state level, you must hold a valid HVAC contractor license issued by the Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board (OCILB). This license is the foundation for all professional mechanical work in the state.
Once licensed by the state, you must register with the City of Dayton Building Services Division to perform work within city limits. This local registration allows you to pull the necessary permits for installations and repairs. Always ensure your EPA Section 608 certification is current, as this is a federal mandate for any technician handling refrigerants, and failure to comply can result in significant fines.
