FAQ
I live in a historic Rockville Centre home and want to replace my old window ACs with a ductless mini-split system. What local permits and property rules do I need to follow for the outdoor unit?
You must obtain a building permit from the Village Building Department. Under Village Code § 340-121.1, the outdoor compressor must be set back at least 20 feet from the front property line and 15 feet from the rear property line. If placed in a side yard, it must be no more than 6 feet from the house and at least 3 feet from the property line. A village-licensed electrician must also file for the power hookup. The unit's noise level also cannot exceed 60 dBA at your property line under Village Code § 232-8.
