What happens when a permit is issued without proper adhering to code provisions?

When a permit is issued without adhering to the proper code provisions, it is cancelled and considered invalid. This is because permits are designed to ensure that all construction and plumbing work meets the safety standards and regulations outlined in the plumbing code. When the necessary provisions are not followed, it compromises the integrity of the work, posing potential safety hazards and legal repercussions.

The requirement for code compliance is fundamental in the permitting process to maintain public safety and to uphold industry standards. Invalid permits cannot be legally used for construction, and any work done under such a permit can lead to further complications, including fines or the need for costly corrections. Thus, adherence to the required codes is crucial for a permit to be valid and enforceable in practice.
